I believe we are at a crossroad with Linux. It will either take the right road where the community welcomes newcomers & explorers while still holding true to the security, privacy and open source principles that got us this far, or it takes the left road where the community openly welcomes the commercial & proprietary companies to overtake Linux with metadata grabbing, privacy invasive layers of almost but not really open source'ish software. Seems lately a lot of people wanting to turn left.

@dasgeek I think Linux will always remain FOSS - I'm sure that at some point there will be commercial Linux distributions (which will most likely infringe on user privacy and things), but I believe there will always be distributions which are there for freedom, and and there just to provide a good and safe computing experience.
