The article says that Gnuplot is "non-open source". That is not true. Gnuplot is Free and Open Source Software. Its license is more restrictive than the General Public License, but it is still FOSS. It is included in the Debian project, which is pretty purist in its FOSS requirements.

Gnuplot is a great plotting and fitting package, I have been using it on various GNU/Linux distributions for over a decade.
