  They won't, for so many more reasons beyond the PR nightmare. Linus yelling at a former rep of Intel isn't enough to cause them to do something that stupid.

    The hypothesis of this happening reminds me of "OpenBSD loses funding due to anti-war statements" (2003) [1] [1] http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/04/21/1050777197498.html http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/04/21/1050777197498.h...

      The difference being Intel/Linus and a government and TdR, who is quite a bit more acerbic than Linus... and the government less tolerant of comments as such. Still, a good find. Also, Unices! Not a word I've heard before.
