@tehstu I won't claim expertise on how that all plays out, but obviously Fedora is downstream of RHEL. Fedora has its own governance and its own AI contributions policy.

@jackryder @cR0w That's fair enough! Is it possible that in an age of US abdication of care for...literally anything, there is space for escalation in this realm? Old rules seems to be fraying.
@cR0w I guess I mean more visibility and materiel. Like if the US won't defend data centers, will companies start looking at drone and missile defense? Will it be commonplace for heavily armed units to occupy headquarters? I dunno, kinda spiraling here. But it seems to me that trillion-dollar companies aren't going to take barrages of missiles and drones lying down, and if their home country won't act on their behalf...
Just occurred to me that if we're at the "nation states attacking corporations" stage of cyberpunk dystopia, we're a hair's breadth from "corporations maintaining private militaries" stages, so that's rad.
