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.

Same thing can be said of Pakistan and they don't have a significantly high Linux usage.
Pakistan has been funded by USA for decades to house US funded terrorists and to commit terrorism and keep Asia unstable. They have also given shelter to other terrorist groups in the region. Pakistan has never had a complete term under any Prime Minister since 1947. Pakistan and India are worlds apart on every single socio-economic and political parameter.
I should have just said false equivalence. Your arguments till now have been too weak to prove anything you are claiming. Don't hop around like Alex Jones. Just stop.
What on earth are you taking about?? I'm telling you that "no money = Linux" is a bad argument and you come back with a drug fueled conspiracy theory.
I'm not even giving an argument, I'm telling you you have no argument. You're the one that should be explaining your theory.
Dude, chill a bit. Take some fresh air and stay away from sharp objects.
I explained my "conspiracy theory" (factual BTW) and I EDC a Victorinox.
Indians in such big numbers are not privacy conscious. There are not so many Indians tech focused to the point they actively learn Linux. It is about lack of money for individuals and in some cases trying to get maximum performance on potato machines, again a consequence of lack of money.
