It's interesting to note that Linux Foundation is not even mentioned anywhere in the discussions. It is all Linus Torvalds for people apparently. Linux Foundation and their corporate lawyers should be the ones who recommended this right?

Moreover, I am interested if this effects FreeBSD which is not run by corporates like Linux Foundation but is still US. And what about OpenBSD which is Canadian?

To be fair, I would personally welcome for these Foundations to move to more neutral countries. RISC V foundation moved to Switzerland because of the shenanigans concerning China. I would trust the Swiss government more to keep the spirit of Open Source/Free Software up than the US one.

Because the code is thought still owned by the devs, I do not know how much difference that would make.

Switzerland's neutrality is long gone, they also sanction Russia.
