Wait, what?

Das kann doch nicht angehen!

"Zwar schließt der Entwurf Open-Source-Software explizit aus, jedoch nur, wenn diese nicht für kommerzielle Aktivitäten eingesetzt wird. Aufgrund der schwammigen Formulierung gibt es hier einen großen Interpretationsspielraum, der für Unmut in der Open Source-Branche gesorgt hat. (...)

Zudem könnten Juristen Schadensszenarien konstruieren und damit kleinere Hersteller durch Abmahnungen vom Markt drängen. Die Konsequenz wäre, dass Unternehmen sämtliche Open-Source-Aktivitäten stoppen und zu proprietärer, also geschlossener Software umsteigen würden.

Und das wäre, kurzgesagt, der Todesstoß für Open Source in Europa sowie eine erhebliche Schwächung für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen."

Looks like there is still no #CyberResilienceAct and #Opensource article on #Futurezone yet 😔

Guess that's what we get if

i feel under-informed and over-lobbied regarding the #eu #CyberResilienceAct . i am looking for an article / explainer / paper which summarizes the proposed legislation and its consequences on #opensource projects and business models concisely. can anyone make recommandations? no videos.
my questions are:
* which problems is the proposed legislation supposed to solve?
* which measures are proposed to solve these problems?
* how do these affect #opensource ?

or do i have to read the source?

@schenklklopfer dafuq?
Mehr fällt da einem auch ned ein 🤐

Un avis sur le #CyberResilienceAct ?

Personne ne parle du #CyberResilienceAct ?

C'est pourtant un changement dramatique dans l'Open Source :/

Late to the party, but what strikes me odd/interesting about the #EU #CyberResilienceAct and esp. the #ITRE recitals is how on one hand it looks very much as someone with deep understanding of #FOSS wrote it, but on the other hand also there is a massive and hurtful mismatch.

Designed by committee, I guess... But that's how it goes. I hope it turns out for the best

🇪🇺member states agree common position on essential requirements for digital products #CyberResilienceAct.

PSA: If you're someone who uses, creates or cares about #FOSS, free open source software, please be aware of the European Cyber Resilience Act. It could have dire consequences to the FOSS community.
