I asked in a different thread:

Do we have a sense that projects like OpenBSD/OpenSSH, FreeBSD, ISC[1] and Apache were included in the "blessed" initial participants in Project Glasswing ?

Or is it big name tech companies, banks and fashionable languages and package managers ?

Probably? FreeBSD has had a large increase in security advisories the past couple months. More in the last two months than all of 2025 combined.

“Oi, you got a loicense to make secure software there?”

I joke but that is the world we are moving towards. I don’t think many on HN have thought through the second and third order implications.
