So what? We were talking about companies not individuals. The Linux kernel is not a company, not a product you can buy and neither is Linus Torvalds.

Plus, for the last 20+ years Linus has been working from the US while also gaining US citizenship. Case in point for US tech dominance, talent bread in Europe ends up in the US.

Bred.

But, sure, the US is acquiring European bread talent too: Sourdough, baguette, ciabatta...
