#BambuLab Has Been Violating #AGPLv3 for Years, #SoftwareFreedomConservancy Says
Published by the Free Software Foundation in 2007, it requires that any software built on an AGPLv3-licensed project must make its complete #sourcecode available under the same terms. Bambu has never made its source code available.
#SFC are working on a new project called '#baltobu', which will reverse-engineer #Bambu's proprietary components.

Der Druck auf Bambu Lab steigt.
(auch gleich ein Wortspiel mit dabei 😅)Nun steigt die Software Freedom Conservancy (“SFC”) mit ein in die Thematik und geht auf Konfrontation mit Bambu Lab. 👍
Dazu kommt der Streisand-Effekt.

A long-running lawsuit over Vizio's Linux-based smart #TV software is headed to trial in August, with the #SoftwareFreedomConservancy arguing that #GPL rules require #Vizio to release complete source code owners could use to modify, maintain, or strip ads and #tracking from their TVs.

The outcome could reverberate across the industry. Because many of today's popular smart TV operating systems are #Linux-based.

Judge may force #Vizio to share #sourcecode under #GPL
The legal complaint from #SoftwareFreedomConservancy (SFC) seeks access to the #SmartCast source code so that Vizio customers can make changes and improvements to the platform, something that ought to be possible for code distributed under the GPL. On Thursday, California Superior Court Judge Sandy Leal issued a tentative ruling in advance of a hearing, indicating support for part of SFC's legal challenge.

OpenWrt One router is now available for $89
OpenWrt is a free and open source, Linux-based operating system designed for routers and other networking applications. While it’s most often used as an aftermarket replacement for the firmware that comes pre-installed on a router, earlier this year the OpenWrt team announced it was partnering with Banana Pi to design and sell the first router made specifically to run OpenWrt.
It’s called the OpenWrt One, and the first samples went on sale in October. Now the Software Freedom Conservancy has announced the “production release” of the OpenWrt One. It’s available for purchase for $89.
With support for WiFi 6 and only two Ethernet ports, the router isn’t necessarily the most powerful or versatile option. But it’s designed to be a hacker-friendly, repairable device that’s “unbrickable” thanks to a switch that lets you boot from a recovery image if anything goes wrong with the operating system image written to the primary storage.
Key features include:
- 1.3 MediaTek MT7981B (Filogic 820) processor with two ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores
- 1GB DDR4 memory (onboard)
- 256MiB SPI NAND Flash and 16 MiB SPI NOR flash storage
- M.2 2242/2230 socket for PCIe Gen 2 x1 SSD (bring your own storage)
- MediaTek MT7976C dual-band WiFi 6 (2×2 2.4 GHz and 3×3 5 GHz)
- 2 RJ45 Ethernet ports: one 2.5 GbE + 1 GbE
- 1 x USB 2.0 Type-A host port
- 1 x USB Type-C (device, console)
- 1 x USB Type-C (power)
- RTC backup battery support
- PoE support
- MikroBUS socket for expansion modules
The system supports Power over Ethernet via the 2.5 GbE port or you can use a USB Type-C power supply.
For every OpenWrt One unit sold, the Software Freedom Conversancy receives a $10 donation earmarked for a fund that goes toward development of OpenWrt.

OpenWrt is a free and open source, Linux-based operating system designed for routers and other networking applications. While it’s most often used as an aftermarket replacement for the firmware that comes pre-installed on a router, earlier this year the OpenWrt team announced it was partnering with Banana Pi to design and sell the first router made specifically to run OpenWrt.
It’s called the OpenWrt One, and the first samples went on sale in October. Now the Software Freedom Conservancy has announced the “production release” of the OpenWrt One. It’s available for purchase for $89.
With support for WiFi 6 and only two Ethernet ports, the router isn’t necessarily the most powerful or versatile option. But it’s designed to be a hacker-friendly, repairable device that’s “unbrickable” thanks to a switch that lets you boot from a recovery image if anything goes wrong with the operating system image written to the primary storage.
Key features include:
- 1.3 MediaTek MT7981B (Filogic 820) processor with two ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores
- 1GB DDR4 memory (onboard)
- 256MiB SPI NAND Flash and 16 MiB SPI NOR flash storage
- M.2 2242/2230 socket for PCIe Gen 2 x1 SSD (bring your own storage)
- MediaTek MT7976C dual-band WiFi 6 (2×2 2.4 GHz and 3×3 5 GHz)
- 2 RJ45 Ethernet ports: one 2.5 GbE + 1 GbE
- 1 x USB 2.0 Type-A host port
- 1 x USB Type-C (device, console)
- 1 x USB Type-C (power)
- RTC backup battery support
- PoE support
- MikroBUS socket for expansion modules
The system supports Power over Ethernet via the 2.5 GbE port or you can use a USB Type-C power supply.
For every OpenWrt One unit sold, the Software Freedom Conversancy receives a $10 donation earmarked for a fund that goes toward development of OpenWrt.

#FTC urged to stop #tech makers downgrading devices after you've bought them
Digital rights activists (#ConsumerReports, #EFF, #SoftwareFreedomConservancy, #iFixit, and U.S. Pirg) want device manufacturers to disclose "guaranteed minimum support time" for devices — and regulations ensuring product's core functionality will work even after its software updates stop. Some brick devices they'd rather not support, kill apps that drive functions, or add post-sale subscriptions
