Comment Re: Linux vs. BSD ex-macOS/Android/ioT/Chromebook? (Score 1) 66
Because MacOS it's not a BSD. Linux in Android is still open source and still Linux. MacOS might have started from BSD code but it's not BSD licensed, it's a closed source kernel and operating system that was once based on BSD. That actually makes the point that Linux would now be relegated to a small niche if not for the GPL: as with BSD, a corporation could have produced a closed source version of it and dominated the market with it. Claiming it was originally based on Linux wouldn't give us the source code for it...
