Source? I fail to see any similarities between the two.

Was it not? I find it hard to find sources, but I realllllly remember it started off as a heavily modified fork of Apache 1.3.
> nginx is not Apache fork. I know well enough Apache 1.3 and I've got some ideas from Apache such as memory pools, configuration methods, processing phases, etc., but there is no line of Apache code. As to OCSP, I'm going to implement it in the next 2.0 version.
edit: Assuming "brianm" is Brian McCallister, he would be a former ASF board member. If "jimjag" is Jim Jagielski, that would be one of the ASF founders.
not a bad sum for apache 1.3 fork...
In 2019, Rambler tried to take over Nginx claiming dubious copyright infringement, putting the main author [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_Sysoev|Igor Sysoev(w)] at risk.

I don't know that he was trying to imply anything. But I find it useful information, since there are lots of companies with IT Security departments that will more heavily scrutinized software based on its geographic origin.
When I joined my company, one of the first things I was tasked with was determining the origin of all of the software installed by my predecessor. Some of it got chucked out because it was from certain places.
And this was looong before anyone started dropping bombs in Kyiv.
It's not weird for a company in the UK to favor UK software, or a company in Japan to favor Japanese software, etc.
Did you learn from chatGPT how to convicingly tell completely made up and false information?
What part do you think is wrong? I must say you are quite creative with insults. Great skill!
What do you try to imply with your statement?
FLOSS licenses allow software to be used for any purpose. This is a good thing, after seeing lists of "undesireable countries" in EULAs.
