Summary: The "something" Foundation (something they make money from, without even using it, supporting it, let alone understanding it) is outsourcing almost everything to Microsoft (GitHub, proprietary software). It's just constantly milking the trademark of Linus Torvalds to make a lot of money and now it uses Apple and proprietary software to prepare a report about Linux (maybe Linux Foundation is the wrong name for it).
Setting up several reliable copies of the data, plus several off-site backups (this data is nowhere as sensitive as medical data), should only cost a few grand
If someone (or someones) calls you paranoid for taking about "beacon"-like functionality, there will be no lack of authoritative citations (e.g. Web links) they can be provided to prove them wrong
There's no "anti-AI" (it's not even AI), there's opposition to fraud, to plagiarism, and to companies that profit more when there's global warning (caused in part by their business activities)
At least some people squeezed out some "free press" out of this charade [...] That the media kept boosting parodies as the alternative/s to the bigot is a topic we wrote about a great deal over the past 3 weeks
