If/when the Russian government comes knocking on their door and tells them that they need to do x, y, and z with the kernel

CIA could do that too.

Any moderator want to actually let me know why my comment was removed, or…?

Is pointing out the dangers of working in an autocratic nation against the rules?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
