Very good description, and if the protections from OSS are not enough I expect more noise in the next weeks/months > There is of course an elephant in the room: the well-oiled mechanism that “The internet treats censorship as a malfunction and routes around it” (John Perry Barlow). The parliament position reads: > Only free and open-source software made available on the market in the course of a commercial activity should be covered by this Regulation > Whether a free and open- source product has been made available as part of a commercial activity should be assessed on a product-by-product basis, looking at both the development model and the supply phase of the free and open-source product with digital elements. > (10a) For example, a fully decentralised development model, where no single commercial entity exercises control over what is accepted into the project’s code base, should be taken as an indication that the product has been developed in a non-commercial setting.
