What the 2022 Tax Filing (From 7 Months Ago, for Tax Year 2021) Teaches Us About the Linux Foundation

Summary: Our new series looks into the bosses of Linus Torvalds and what actually drives their agenda, based on the structural and financial aspects

T

HE video above goes through the Linux Foundation wiki under June 2023 and then discusses what the Linux Foundation does with its money, in turn taking note of this latest IRS filing.

At a later point we'll focus on events as a source of revenue, the latest new shells/offshoots, and organisational charts etc.

As noted along the way in the video, Jim Zemlin has this attitude of, "I'm the boss of Linus Torvalds, hence I'm important."

Reality, however (based on facts), shows that he's not important and despite that he somehow became the boss of Torvalds. Cui bono? The evil companies wanting to control Torvalds via Zemlin and his corrupt wife, who takes Microsoft money and defrauds loads of people. It's "all in the family"... pretenders oppressing the world's achievers. Does money ruin everything? Is it OK for Linux to be controlled by companies that loathe the licence of Linux and sometimes Linux itself?
