This is Linux in 201:

missing my point, I'm not defending leftists

You're are making categorically false statements that both sides are becoming more extreme when it is almost entirely the left who is radicalizing. So yes, the left is both the main and only problem right now. And all efforts should be focused on stopping them or at the very least reducing their power and influence.

>Big corporations literally kidnapped linux.
They have influence over the Linux Foundation. They cannot ever own the Linux kernel itself due to the beauty of the GPL.

Our biggest problem is if a new version of the kernel changes the license, in which case, loads of people will just move to a fork.

On the other hand, if it changes to a more permissive license like one of the BSD licenses, or MIT, for example, then we're kinda screwed, because companies will no longer have to contribute their changes back to the mainline kernel.

>They guy that turned down a job offer by steve jobs to work on linux.

If Linus did that, that's a good thing.

I was at a conference with this person once. I replied to one of their tweets with a sincere suggestion, and the conversation went quickly to implying that I was a racist.

It was at that point I stopped responding because I didn't want to lose my job.

>As a summary: By contributing to the Kernel you agreed to the license: "by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.", further the license indicates that there is no way to withdraw the license as long as the recipient comply with it: "parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance"
