This could make Autodesk a no-go for companies that make designs for defense or critical infrastructure, where sharing the design with Autodesk (or any other entity) is not an option.
Companies that are not based in the US in particular will probably start looking at Solidworks, if they have not done so already.

- CapricornNoble 4y agoFriendly reminder that CATIA[1], which was used to design the Eurofighter Typhoon, runs really well under Wine. I'm sure that's not 100% feature-equivalent to the latest Autodesk Fusion, but at least you can run it locally without getting raked over the coals by the software company.

- mgreenleaf 4y agoI did hear this week that Autodesk Construction Cloud is currently banned from military projects (was in use and is not currently permitted) because of something to do with security policies; but I didn't find out what exactly was in violation, does anyone happen to know what the issue is/was?
