The article leans a bit towards a pessimistic tone imho, so here's another source: https://www-heise-de.translate.goog/news/EU-Regulierung-Ausnahmen-fuer-Open-Source-in-Produkthaftungsrichtlinie-9579307.html?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp https://www-heise-de.translate.goog/news/EU-Regulierung-Ausn...
Apparently the current state of affairs is that open source (non-commercial!) devs and projects are safe. If you pack OSS as part of a commercial offering, you're on the hook for that as well (read: you're liable for the whole product you sell and can't put off some aspects to open source). So nothing to fear for us so far. Still in process though.
