I think it’s from proprietary OS makers that want to squash open source competition.

Easy enough to send threatening cease and desist letters to distro maintainers that may not have a penny in savings. This is a huge gift to Apple and Microsoft that probably had enough of Linux hoarding in on their market share.

Can’t wait to create all my accounts using the Unix epoch.

Still fucking stupid and just a slow creep towards some bullshit like “kernel level age verification” where most Linux distros can’t possibly comply because the chip manufacturers won’t work with developers to certify unless they pay a $10,000 fee.
