Meanwhile Linus is fine with supporting USA DOD and making a profit from it. Funny how morality changes when you introduce other interests... It's a purely business move and has nothing to do with ethics.
Not only that, he's likely using the whole "I'm Finnish" thing as an excuse. According to Wikipedia at least, he's now an American citizen living in -of all places, Silicon Valley.
