I wouldn't wonder if, at some point, developers from Russia, China and other BRICS countries will fork the Linux kernel. That way they can still can do the changes they need.
If BSD were forked, I can't see a practical reason why Linux can't be forked.
- Gud 2y agoThere are already many patch sets for the Linux kernel which I suspect is realistically what would happen. What I don’t get is why individuals in sanctioned countries can’t submit their patches still?

BRICS doesn't have a lot of real commonality of interests, but in the much more closely aligned RINK (Russia-Iran-North Korea) axis, there already is a forked Linux kernel underlying North Korea's Red Star OS (which also uses forks of Western software outside the kernel as part of the distro.)
