The European Commission sees open-source software as more than an IT tool. Policy makers are encouraging open-source ecosystems to drive innovation, autonomy and collaboration in a world where global trade is being redrawn.
This trade dispute highlights something most open-source advocates have known for years: open source is freedom. It’s freedom from monopolies, freedom from arbitrary pricing, and freedom from foreign influence.
Thank you for responding. I was curious because you said something has to be done, and now less of that something is being done.
I was wondering if this latest development by Trump was a source of anger, confusion or sign of weakness, but obviously not.
What % of Trump’s actions do you think are being driven by behind the scenes people like Musk and Thiel? Same question relating to JD Vance?
