    Linux devs usually don’t make a business out of it though.

    Horrible to imagine, finding Russian missile software on Gitlab.

    That’s the thing about FOSS: you do not have much control over what people do with it.

    That’s the thing about FOSS licensing, at least legally. Depending on which one you choose it controls what people do with it quite a lot.

      About licensing:
      Yes and no. Plenty of people or companies just don’t care and it can be hard to prove otherwise. And in the context of military software, well… I doubt russian software devs are even allowed to publish anything related, despite the respective FOSS possibly requiring it.
