I’m more concerned about OpenBSD. Given how centralized the project governance is, and its base in Canada, I can imagine the government attempting to (for example) force the project to serve backdoored images or updates to targeted people. A backdoor or bugdoor in the source would probably be spotted by someone, and I’m not even sure the bill allows a broad tool like that, but that’s not the only way to compromise software users.<p>Fortunately the mirrors are distributed, so maybe that reduces the risk.
Didn't this bill get amended to clarify that no encryption back doors are required?
Problem is, where do you take a company like this if you want peace of mind that the new host country won't immediately try to pass a similar law?

Why don't people ever realize that the more Liberal a government is, the more control they will demand from our lives.
