You’re doing it wrong. I want to run a macOS container on Linux

No, I mean their website.

I dont know what that means. Do the oauth creds get shared with a third party or no?

The point is that most of these solutions require me letting an app post on my behalf. I don’t want that.

It means that any company can take that code, modify it (as would be required every year per IRS tax changes), and resell it without being required to publish the source code changes.

What many European countries are doing is requiring the government to publish code under a copyleft license. That would allow companies to also benefit from this code to make their own tools (which they could also sell), and it would require them to publish the source code of their improvements.

Basically copyleft legally ensures collaboration. Public domain does not.

Either NSA got an exception or their code is public domain

Licensed CC0. Assholes.

Ugh, it’s licensed CC0 public domain. Assholes.

You could just avoid corporate media. There’s loads of great independent journalism in the West.

Don’t post screenshots of headlines

Sounds like they don’t know how to do security, then

Are the rest of their engineers so incompetent, or only their security department?
