Well I guess all your points are true for Europe but I don’t see how for America. (because freedom) it will certainly cost more but also it already does.
Hah. Apple, Microsoft, and Google are all American companies.
you are suggesting that linux will be banned somehow... which is a take for sure.
but not one I share. (understandably I hope.. )?
Not "banned" per se, but functionally impossible to run on hardware that's powerful enough to be useful. It's not a stretch to imagine GPU drivers that refuse to run unless installed on a fully "attested" system. We're already there with video games, it's called "anti-cheat". They'll call it something like "AI abuse protection".
Yes of course all of the servers in all the data centres will suddenly start running windows…
