That's not Google's policy, it's Linux. What you suggest would mean abandoning Linux as a kernel. I'd be all for it - the industry needs some more open source kernel competition.
- dep_b 10y agoLinux is a bad choice for a half-open environment. Either it's totally open (like most Linux distros) or everything is done by the manufacturer (like routers). But not this garbage with closed source drivers that will prevent you from recompiling eventually somewhere in the future.
