#Torvalds needs to leave #LinuxFoundation and force them to change their name. He did this with #OSDL ... long overdue to do that again. http://techrights.org/2021/06/23/linux-foundation-and-linux-brand/

"not sure what Jim #Zemlin is running but personal I think the first line in the report should read: - #Microsoft corp has effectively taken over the #LinuxFoundation "http://lxer.com/module/forums/t/36773/ @LinuxFoundation
#linuxfoundation is a private company that uses the brand #linux to pretend it's a common good and community so that it doesn't have to pay tax. #irs #openwashing #monopolies
A day after #techrights published this article the #linuxfoundation bombarded the Hell out of the media, maybe spilling out everything it had in the pipeline for December http://techrights.org/2021/12/06/linux-foundation-irs/

"Their financial report appears to be quite opaque and closed, as opposed to the Linux project and community." #linuxfoundation https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29556467
Many (or some) of the issues would go away if #linuxfoundation removed the word #linux from its name, which is misleading. '“Linux Kernel Support” is the lowest priority for The Linux Foundation.' https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29556467
#linuxfoundation does not speak for #linux ... let me repeat that: #linuxfoundation does not speak for #linux ... the @linuxfoundation does not even own the brand/trademark "Linux"
#linuxfoundation does 'studies' on diversity; won't 'dogfood' its own findings though. http://techrights.org/2020/06/14/linux-foundation-with-zero-african-american-employees-in-a-country-where-13-4-identify-as-african-american-boasts-about-its-support-for-the-black-community/
2020: If You Don’t Understand Why #LinuxFoundation Board is Less Than 5% Geeks, Then You Don’t Understand the Linux Foundation • Techrights ⚓ http://techrights.org/2020/08/28/linux-foundation-for-sale/ ䷉ #Techrights #Linux #FreeSW | ♾ Gemini address: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2020/08/28/linux-foundation-for-sale/
Somnetimes the so-called #linuxfoundation is even attacking the people who made #linux http://techrights.org/2021/11/21/sending-linus-torvalds-to-therapists/
It is wrong to say that #linuxfoundation isn't helping #freesw activists. It's ACTIVELY ATTACKING them.
When #linuxfoundation BUYS media coverage (fluff/puff pieces) it's not for #linux but for its sponsors, e.g. #microsoft and #intel so, IOW, it's like a money-laundering operation for media #bribery
#linuxfoundation is junkyard for #freesw communities and incubator for #pentagon connected (and taxpayer-funded) abusive #monopolies ... in essence passing the Commons to 'Agents of Empire'. It should quit using "Linux" in its name. It tarnishes the brand. http://techrights.org/wiki/Linux_Foundation
What Jim #zemlin did: enumerated a bunch of things #linuxfoundation did this year, What Jim Zemlin did NOT do: said that this coming year he would ACTUAL USE Linux. #hypocrite #zemlinPAC #entryism #monopolies
#linuxfoundation exists to make #linux (as a brand and as a project) suit the 'suits' http://techrights.org/wiki/Linux_Foundation#December_2021 #irs should quit protecting them!
It's quite revealing that #linuxfoundation uses #ProprietarySoftware for webinars and such. All that "conference" stuff? GET PROPRIETARY MALWARE that spies on you. Nothing says "Linux" and "Open Source" like THIS.... because look who RUNS the LF! Some of the very people who OPPOSE Linux and what "Open Source" (or FS) truly stands for. Hating community, loving monopolistic corporations. #openwashing them.
I see that Jim Zemlin's #microsoft #propaganda arm is working overtime misusing its money to pay "media" for puff pieces http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/158828#comment-32230 #linuxfoundation = #corruption http://techrights.org/wiki/Linux_Foundation#December_2021
Despite all the #openwashing #ETSI is like a #patent #cartel https://www.juve-patent.com/news-and-stories/cases/paris-court-asserts-jurisdiction-in-philips-and-xiaomi-frand-dispute/ #linuxfoundation is a tool for neutralising communities, activists etc. @ffii @zoobab
Over time more people will understand #linuxfoundation is a scan. #irs should see the same https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/linux-foundation-spends-just-3-4-of-its-money-on-linux-4175705097/#5 also: http://techrights.org/wiki/Linux_Foundation#December_2021
