Apparently this will include Linux…

    What you propose falls into the same pitfall that I see a lot of people here mentioning. How would we enforce that?

    From what I have read of this law there is no requirement for the OS to send the data to any source (ie. The government) other than the applications and app stores. There are even requirements that they not send the data elsewhere and nowhere else.

    People always bring up “it’s just a matter of time until the government starts trying to collect that data.” But that is true every day so I don’t really understand that argument. Besides many of us are on linux anyways where we will just say no.
