Has nothing to do with the licence, if you need a lawyer (GPL) to see the magic changes in your appliance, you should probably not trust that vendor.
Also, if the appliance vendor has put in some binary blob/module, you have no right to see that either (only the changes to the kernel). In the end, it really doesn't matter.
Buy proprietary stuff or don't.

- BSDobelix 2y agoBut you don't have the code, just the changes to the Linux-Kernel, and that is often NOT the secret sauce. Again buy proprietary or don't, the license (if opensource) has nothing to do with it.
