> Your example makes the exact same assumptions My example does not make the assertion that Google donated/bribed the systemd project, so no, it does not make the same assumptions. It intentionally leaves any implied motivations open ended. > And they're fair assumptions - Google is well known for giving funding to open source projects to get their products set as defaults. The only case I'm aware of is Firefox, which had a contract with Mozilla to have the Google search engine be the default. I'm curious to hear about more though. The privacy concerns with Google DNS seem to be partially unfounded too [1]. Granted, that is coming from Google themselves, but privacy policies are legally binding. For the record, I don't think there should be a default at all, but I have no problems with how Poettering handled this.
