12 days agoKeep it a note that having them listed as a Chinese military company could let US put pressure against open source groups to not collaborate with them; very similar to how US forced Linux Foundation to kick off decade old russian collaborators.
do you really think I give a shit about tencent? I just wanted to point out that this could have negative consequences for open source projects. Projects sponsored by them could lose a funding source, or any help work done by them could cease because of this.
