They just won’t comply. These FOSS services never have to worry about the law anyway - there are literal piracy sites, lol

FOSS is fucked either way in EU starting end 2027 because of CRA.

EU really is killing computing and software

  Isn’t FOSS excluded from CRA. Why should it be fucked?

    It isn’t. For example I developed a small opensource application, for which I do paid support. Because of the paid support, it’s interpreted as a commercial activity. Without the paid support, I can’t spend time on the project.
    
    So when the time comes I’ll have to retire the project.
