@MartyFouts @eliasp Yeah, perhaps that's the point: free and open source software has no direct relation to this incident. So why, @EUCommission?

Still, I opine that cutting costs on FOSS initiatives is simply adding salt to an injury: there will be less sustainable grassroots projects with influence at least relatively comparable to Crowdstrike. I see it as a loss in expertise enough for secure deployments at scale.

@vintprox @eliasp @EUCommission I don’t understand why the EU is doing this. No matter what else is going on, support for competition and reduction of monoculture should be sufficient to justify spending on FOSS alternatives.
