From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I agree. This is a slippery slope. We need to assassinate each person pushing this law, and everyone who votes for it.

See, talking about solutions just get shut down by people who don’t actually want solutions. If you think protesting and calling your bought-and-paid-for senator is ever going to change the world, you’re going to be very sad.
