I dont think there will always be open source software. All it takes is a new law to be passed and then become illegal.

- the8472 10y agoYou don't have to make open source illegal, all it takes is a requirement that all devices sold must come with secure boot keys by a government-approved vendor. And of course the vendor can't hand out descendant keys to open source projects because those could be modified to do anything that could get the key yanked by the government.
