And the DMA practically kills free software usage in enterprise environments.
What's the DMA? Lots of orgs require Foss for security reasons
DMA is Digital Markets Act. It requires free software to comply with quite serious requirements that are hard for most of the projects to comply with.

Isn't this why all the Foss licsenses waive all liability?
