Basically the title.
I have seen the EU-OS/Suse discussions for some months now. However, Ubuntu/Arch/Fedora are extremely mature projects. So competing against them will be hard.
I want to know how realistic the scenario (described by the question) is.
@xavier666 Given that Canonical is a British company, that’s not something that could happen at all. Red Hat is anyone’s guess given that the law doesn’t really mean anything to them any more.
I had a brain fart. I completely forgot that Canonical is British.
what has red had done that makes you say the law is meaningless to them?
@gi1242 The US government, not Red Hat themselves.
They literally wanted to close source as much as possible afaik.
But unsure if its true. Somethinf in that direction of fedora abd locking down was a thing. It rose a question on GPL if its really working or allowed, as they abused loopholes
They didn’t want to close source it. Someone correct me but I think they wanted to put RHEL behind a Paywall.
Ah right, that was it
