You asked for it, you got it. Here's what I think of Red Hat.Sorry this video took a bit longer than I'd like, since I'm working on finishing my basement (fu...
Not making their sources generally available for download is NOT the same as closed source. The only ones subject to their new licensing agreements are their paying customers. They are very much pushing against the spirit of FOSS licenses but there is no potential for some Joe on the street to get sued for looking at their source code.

Yah I don’t get it. I don’t think people realize how much of the stuff they run is developed by Red Hat. I think people still think its coders in their free time contributing but alot of the kernel and other big projects are done by people who are paid.
RedHat doesn’t control Fedora. The community poll is against opt-out telemetry atm. It’s leaning towards opt-in atm. The original proposal only has 16% support.

But how would that Joe look at the source code if it not publicly available and he’s not a paying customer?
Checkmate.
