    I agree that exceptions should be made for open-source.

    The exceptions shouldn’t be made for “open source” (which would require a legal definition of that), but for operating systems that aren’t preinstalled on devices.

    I haven’t read the exact wording of this bill yet, but if it includes all operating systems, then that would seem to prohibit distributing vintage operating systems from before anyone had this idea.
