        It’s linux, there would be a million walkthroughs telling you how to patch or recompile it out within a day. I like that these distros are taking a stand but it’s not really going to move the needle much.

        What should worry us is these policies coming to hardware. It’s much more difficult to modify firmware than an open source operating system.
