So now what? US gonna bomb those who are not with them?
I suppose it is inevitable that USA govt will try to discourage OSS
adoption as much as possible since most of the popular software in
use currently are very much USA-centric and their software industry
will suffer given the prevalent current business model of making
money by selling generic software. If OSS really catches on here
esepcially in govt usage, I am sure they will also try to put some
pressure on the Malaysian govt. (if they have not done so already).
