      Not gonna matter, especially if Linux, BSD, and other alternatives are criminalized by this.

        They can’t do anything about Linux. Someone will just fork a copy that doesn’t have that.

          If they can ban hardware they don’t like, they can ban software they don’t like too, they could just make Linux illegal to operate.

        Heh. They’ll have enough trouble validating it on Windows and Mac for them to not even care about Linux. If rey force Linux to do this it really is the year the Linux desktop.
