    Yeah but they will be roped in along with vpns etc, but there still will always be a distro based somewhere they can’t force it.

      So you’re saying that despite them excluding them now, they’ll include them later, but it doesn’t matter because it’s open source…?

      I mean, I don’t disagree that it doesn’t matter, but why would they go to all the effort of excluding them now just to include them later?
