Damn, like that's ever stopped the very people that like to reverse engineer things.
- ACCount37 11mo agoIt doesn't stop much, but it sure is a bad sign. When Qualcomm got its hands on Arduino, the best case scenario was that Arduino influence would encourage Qualcomm to be more open to small developers, and the worst case scenario was that Qualcomm would devour Arduino and its degenerate lawyer culture would ruin all that's good about it. This is an update towards the latter.
