open article. Ctrl+F "tainted". zero matches. I didn't bother reading the article because of that. Big Enterprise won the kernel wars. After Balmer freaking out and paying a hit piece calling "Linux a cancer", everyone managed to work around GPL and be able to inject non-free parts in the kernel. Linux compromised with the "tainted kernel" and later just gave up. Result: Android is a linux, and is the most closed source system on earth. Thousands of people throw away perfectly good android phones just because the owner of the source code refuses to release a update. Linux lost. Well, at least the spirit of it.
