    Hasn’t ARM always been open source?

      No, it’s licensed. RISC-V isn’t necessarily open sourced either. It’s an open standard, but you can develop your own proprietary designs on it.

        Yup!

        To my understanding RISC-V is like BSD lisenced not GPL.

          I think it was MIT, which is basically the same like BSD

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.
