The European Cyber Resilience Act

If politicians/courts/etc want to be evil, they're not going to let themselves be held back by the precise meanings of words. They'll simply say the meaning they want was the correct meaning all along and do what they wanted to anyway. The fact that everyone in this process recognises the unusual position of open source is far more important than the precise words used to describe it. The best defence is to prevent power accumulating in the first place so that what a single person says doesn't have significant impact.
