Intellectual property law, including repressive copyright terms, "anti-circumvention" provisions, software patents, and more, threatens to hamper (or ban outright) Linux in many parts of the world.
I think you mean, "hamper (or ban outright) free software" here. Banning Linux isn't especially scary. If that happened, I would switch to Hurd or a BSD kernel and keep using all the tools I've come to know and love. No problem.
Or did you mean to use "Linux" as a synonym for "free software" in this case? That's confusing, non-sensical and just plain wrong. Please don't do it.
