From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You have no idea what you are talking about and nether does the Youtuber dude you linked to. This is the same guy who says Cloud strike was causes by a EU ruling. The ruling didn't require Microsoft to give everyone full access. It just required that they don't abuse there control of the OS to give themselves a unfair advantage. Another words, they need to give Zoom the same access as Teams to the OS.
