Chinese government to dump Windows in favor of Linux

  They want to take away the linux/open source community

    I think the main reason they did this is to remove their dependence on a piece of closed source software made by an American company. Could you expand on what you mean by “They want to take away the linux/open source community”?

      Contribute/infiltrate the open source community with programmers working for the government

  Wouldn't it be interesting if this is the event that finally ushers in "The year of the Linux desktop"?

  It's going to be the most locked-down and telemetry-based version of Linux you ever saw. Think a Chromebook but far, far worse. Yes, there will be Linux stuff inside it. But it won't be desktop Linux as we know it.
