I for one am going through quite a culture shock. I always assumed the nature of FOSS software made it immune to be confined within the policies of nations; I guess if one day the government of USA starts to think that its a security concers for china to use and contribute to core opensource software created by its citizens or based in their boundaries, they might strongarm FOSS communities and projects to make their software exclude them in someway or worse declare GPL software a threat to national security.

      I’m not saying the system works or rises to the level of good. I’m saying that it is much better than the Russian system. The people at least get to choose who they think they want, and which group of people will be whipped more.
