Fedora removes elliptic curve algorithms from the source code level [1] and disables hardware acceleration for H.264 / H.265 [2]. [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.c

  Yes, distributing non-free, patented code that requires a license, requires a license. The same goes for Debian actually[1], including blocking requests and removing packages that were included before by mistake. I would even dare say that this is another point for Fedora, enabling https://rpmfusion.org/ https://rpmfusion.org/ is a one-liner and feels entirely native, never a broken package.

    RPM Fusion does not give me uncrippled crypto libraries. It’s caused by their paranoia about export restrictions, not patents.
