I really don't understand the panic. The target is big tech, not open source.

Think of GDPR: this goes primarily after big tech with big fines. What liability can be applied to software you don't pay for?

It really won't. It's targeted at corporations, especially big tech, not open source where there is no money.

If anything, it will likely toss more resources to open source by those very same big tech companies, to protect their liabilities

how dystopian and cyberpunk - where the identity and background of the worker is erased, and hiding from customers that their call is handled by someone abroad. This is evil, and exploitative

i like this - it still shows someone cares. It feels genuine to me. At least it makes your day a little bit more pleasant

Everything about this project is weird. I started looking into it since I do IoT stuff and there was so much hype.

Then you find out about the curl issue. The unnecessary ternary. Read the white paper and all issues with tip selection was "solved" with hand waving. Then you find out it doesn't even have a client that works on a typical IoT device... Reading the email chain made it ultimately clear: these people have no idea what they're doing. They just threw a bunch of random ultra cool sounding tech together ("post-quantum crypto", of course) and started hyping, while the code never worked. Obvious scam.
