    That’s also confusing and it is not the full saying. The full saying is “free as in free speech, not free beer”.

    From the FSF website:

    Free software is a matter of liberty, not price. Think of “free” as in “free speech”, not as in “free beer”. Free software is a matter of the users’ freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software.
