I remember a story where people asked about blobs included in Ventoy and there were no comments from the devs, leading to suspicion.

At the time it wasn’t clear to me if there was any substance to the story or if it was the usual Internet exaggeration, so I resolved to ignore it for the time being and saved a reminder to look into it after a while.

Now my reminder fired off and I looked around, but couldn’t find how the story ended… do you know?

Agreed: now that I’m looking at the whole thing, this looks like a story where the FOSS community left much to be desired.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
