This just further incentivises over-regulatory EU to keep making burdensome regulation that slows down innovation for everyone.
It is better for open source projects to just pass a license claiming, software is not available for free in EU and to make EU companies pay sky high fees to use the software that is freely available for everyone else.
That way EU bureaucrats will stop trying to be the World Police without paying the price that USA has to pay to keep its global influence (like funding military of other nations while americans die in hospitals, in homelessness , intentionally making american exports disadvantageous just to keep its global reserve currency status, etc).
It is absolutely insane to me how EU thinks it can decide what charging port everyone should use USB-C , cookie banners for everyone, GDPR nightmare for everyone, and now this new government rule on opensource contributors to software being held liable for security breaches.
Absolutely crazy. They just want free lunch while trying to control everyone and everything.
