      Linux has always had a strong showing over there. If I had the misfortune of living there I’d certainly want all the privacy and autonomy I could get…

      Speaking of countries, I’m surprised that China isn’t in the top 10, especially considering their efforts to reduce reliance on US tech.

        Maybe it’s somehow related with the Great Firewall and they are not included in the statistics correctly.

        They likely have their own homegrown alternatives, you think Xi the Poo would allow such corruption of his people by giving them access to corrupting capitalist software such as non approved encrypted messaging services?

          And it’s not like it didn’t have a reason. A lot of closed “capitalist” software has been seen in not very good and honest actions. And the penalties for this were very light. Yes open source mostly is a different story.
