That’s a bad mischaracterization. You cannot force someone to do something voluntarily . Torvald spoke in support of it. I’m sure many governments and groups using the Linux kernel and open source want Developers that are vetted. Or can be reasonably sure won’t be forced to act maliciously under duress.
Damn your projection is off the charts. But I mean it’s what we’ve come to expect from leninists. The childish Behavior I mean.
Had I actually said anything stupid. Then you should have been easily able to refute it. Yet you can’t. You can’t even actually acknowledge or reply to anything that I said. Instead choosing to Make up things or imagine things that were never Said.
BTW I’m an anarchist. I have no love for rent seeking leaches. Just as I don’t for capitalist/leninist hypocrites.
It is not a mischaracterization though. Open source projects can be forced to stop accepting contributions from employees of sanctioned companies, which would include Tencent employees if sanctioned. Anyways, Tencent is not being sanctioned here, so I guess it doesn’t really matter.
Also, Linus was definitely forced to kick the Russian maintainers out by USA sanctions.
Force implies force. If you have evidence that it was actually done by force. Against Torvald’s etc will. Please share it. Otherwise get out of here with your gasslighting.
Any project open source or otherwise can and does restrict contribution.
Saying that I’m gaslighting without even bothering to check the facts is a very interesting approach. USA sanctions on Russia regarding software and IT services went into effect on September, and all parties had 90 days to comply or be sanctioned as well. If he really did it only because he wanted to, why not do it as soon as the Russian invasion started? Why not do it as soon as the sanctions were announced (June)? Not kicking all employees from sanctioned companies means the Linux Foundation is sanctioned as well.
Okay, and? Torvald and many others aren’t American, not subject to it, and publicly stated that they weren’t forced to do it.
You’re claiming, hyperbolically might I add, that you know whats going on with Torvald and the foundation better than those people themselves. And still showing no actual proof or causation. How can anyone conclude anything other than you are gaslighting and being misleading? It’s Mega level bullshit conspiracy theories.

This is my last response to you because you just keep saying things that are false while calling me the liar. Linus is an American citizen, and even if he wasn’t, the Linux Foundation is an American organisation.

Literally linked the USA sanctions that apply to this case, but ok.

Instantly disregarded. Completely boneheaded thing to say.
Spoken like an willful adherent of a failed ideology.
Are they an adherant if they’re paid? What about if it’s an LLM?
Yeah, that’s right. I willfully pay rent and I willfully adhere to capitalism. No force used anywhere.
Sorry you said something stupid and got mad when someone pointed it out :(
