It's not free but it's not expensive either. Most well known Windows open source projects have them; e.g. PuTTY, Wireguard, VLC, Rufus, etc. Maybe it's high time for a free-as-in-beer CA for non-profit open source developers

Does the 7-Zip author still refuse to digitally sign or even provide hashes of the official downloads? It's an extremely weird flex, he thinks it's a frivolous waste of time or something.

It's unrealistic to not install TikTok? Laws are not created to be malleable about the population's trivial mental illnesses. We don't need new laws on the books because some people are incapable of turning their phones off.

I see some synergy between this and the "iOS keyboard sucks" thread. Maybe they can regulate that next. I'm curious how they plan to pretend to enforce this. Will you need a loisence to implement infinite scroll?

An RCE in GNU's telnetd has no relationship to the sunsetting of telnet. Something could equally likely happen with SSH (but not really because the OpenBSD folks are paranoid by nature). Apple removing the telnet client from OS X was
