You might’ve noticed the EU and Latvian flags in our recent brochures. Over 50% of our products are already made in the EU — and that number’s growing.

We’re bringing production closer to home to ensure quality, supply chain security, and transparency.

It’s not just a label. It’s a promise. 🇱🇻🇪🇺

@infeeeee I did not argue that they are breaking the GPL or that there are other companies that are breaking it.

I argue that in their essence @mikrotik are hostile to open source.

And here is my chance to correct you that selling software is not against the GPL or other open-source licenses. They may sell whatever they like, just as long as its source is included under an open-source license.

They can sell just support as well, I bet you their primarily-shitty-ISP clientele will still buy.
