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.

Well, I don't think that a "[insert your preferred state] state actor" would ever coming out saying "yes, we tried to to it".
Not to say that what Wikipedia say is false but on the other hand I am not sure how to check if it is true, in these cases.
It's literally just speculation. Even if it were true, what the fuck does that have to do with the nationality of a few Linux contributors? Have you people cracked?
I agree.
Probably nothing, I agree. But since there are sanctions against Russia I suppose they have not really any other choice.
Is that sad ? Yes, but it is life.
By keep it vague and saying their hands are tied they also get to dodge any kind of scutiny on what decisions they actually made before doing this.
True, but sometimes you have not any other choice.
I don't trust them considering their enthusiasm over it and the comments about Finnish history. Go read "Finnisu Civil War: History, Memory, Legacy" by Tepora and try to laugh at the comments about history. Impossible.
