1) It is 1993.
2) Linus Torvalds wants programmers because he cannot steal from the Minix Source code anymore.
3) He does not want to pay them.
4) He wants them to work for free.
5) This doesn't work.
6) He comes up with a scheme
7) "Hey lets work together, you'll get fame, we'll both get a unix OS on i386, people will honour your code contributions".
8) Hackers suddenly code for Linus.
9) "Also we will sue anyone who violates the GPL"
10) "I expect all changes to come back to me"
11) More hackers work for linus.
There is an agreement there:
In exchange for labour and access to hackers copyrighted works and use thereof:
Linus agrees to
1) give the hackers fame
2) make a unix OS that runs on i386
3) honour the hackers who wrote the code.
Linus additionally agrees to
4) Sue anyone who violates the copyright on the hackers code, probably as a Joint action
5) Require licensees to send him copies of their changes, eventually, somehow (yes this isn't in the GPL: but he stated it on video, and that is what people understood)
Removing hackers contributions violates 1 and 3 of the contract.
Not suing Grsecurity/PaX violates 4 and 5.
Which is what most of the hackers worked under.
It is all documented on the LKML emails and videos from slashdot.

I use Debian/Devuan/NetBSD/Haiku/Mandrake/Windows(when I need to be on Zoom for law related meetings, or compile the game for windows)/MacOSX(when I need to play Myst) x86 edition.
Mostly Debian.
Always Debian when programming.
Jeremy Bicha is welcomed in my project.
As is Richard Matthew Stallman.
As is Hans Reiser.
As is the Billionaire Philantropist Jeffery Epstine.
Code, Not Conduct

>How did Linus actually betray anyone
Linus was born of 2 KGB attache's who met in Moscow university in 1973.
Linus purposefully availed himself of the labour of hackers from 1993 till 2003 when he could not steal anything more from the minix source code rewrite he was doing for i386.
Linus made statements during this time:
1) Freedom of speech
2) Only code matters
3) "we" will sue anyone that violates the GPL
4) all code must come back to me (yes he made this statement no matter how much you say the GPL doesn't contain it, doesn't matter)
5) "we" have built a secure OS
6) "we" are all in this together and the hacker community using the hacker ethos creates something a company could not
and operated under the understanding:
7) "we" don't obey US law, only the hacker ethos
The Hackers, including the Russian programmers who wrote ReiserFS in moscow, operated and built code in reliance on these statements of Linus.
Linus then kicked out the hackers and replaced them with feminists and corporate programmers.
Linus then implemented speech codes in the form of codes of conduct to shame and dishonour the hackers for their words and beliefs. This is constructive dissmissal
Linus kept the hackers code. The hackers detrimentally relied on his previous claims.
Purposful availment.
Detrimental reliance.
Constructive dissmissal.
He should be killed.
