This should also include the operating systems and associated tools used to run such software. Right now there are countries around the world shoveling loads of money to alternatives because they suddenly realized Kaspersky can't be trusted.
- majkinetor 5y agoIt seems that Bulgaria allows for usage of proprietary mainstream tools (such as Sql Server) but doesnt recommend it. Custom made software MUST be FOSS tho. which is IMO good middle ground. Also, that law was adopted 6 years ago. FOSS is stronger then ever IMO now, and there is really no reason nowdays to use propriatery stuff for majority of things.
