Conservancy follows the <a href="//appleenthusiast.com/copyleft-compliance/principles.html">Principles of Community-Oriented GPL Enforcement</a>, enforcement principles published by Conservancy and the Free Software Foundation. As the process goes, Conservancy receives complaints from users about products whose sellers aren't meeting their GPL license obligations and Conservancy may investigate. Many of these complaints are for hardware devices with embedded code. The complaints are almost always are that there is free software on the device but that the source code is not available.</p>pchestek@appleenthusiast.com (Pamela Chestek)Thu, 04 Apr 2019 10:00:00 -0400//appleenthusiast.com/blog/2019/apr/04/nosource-nosecurity/
