Enclosed are a few of the definitions in webster's concerning free:

Note that this set is in direct conflict with the CopyLeft
    1d: enjoying personal freedom: not subject to the control or domination
    of another
    2b: determined by the choice of the actor or performer <free actions>
    3a: exempt, relieved, or released from something unpleasant or burdensome
    <free from pain>
    3b: not bound, confined, or detained by force
    4a: having no trade restrictions
    4b: not subject to government regulation
    4c of foreign exchange: not subject to restriction or official control
    5a: having no obligations (as to work) or commitments (as to duty or
    custom) <I'll be free this evening>
    7a1: not obstructed or impeded: CLEAR <a free and open highway>
    7b: not hampered or restricted in its normal operation
    14: not allowing slavery
    9f: LICENTIOUS
      1: lacking legal or moral restraints; esp: disregarding sexual restraints
      2: marked by disregard for strict rules of correctness

These, however, are followed in the CopyLeft
    9b: OUTSPOKEN
    10: not costing or charging anything

You are welcome to misuse (or use with intent to deceive) any word you like,
but you'd better expect to be called on the carpet for it.
