        most things will, I doubt this will though.

        it’s surprising that most countries didn’t see this as a national security threat to begin with, but here we are.

        I think before the end of the current trump administration we’ll see a ban on using Linux within the US out of spite.

        them not realizing or caring that 90% of the internet runs on *nixos derived software will only make things more chaotic.
