I agree, about switching to another Linux (or BSD) distro.
But while Fedora (Ubuntu or [Open]SUSE or Mint, etc.) have a lot of
volunteers, the platform is still controlled by a corporation.
What makes you think that they aren't already doing this, or won't soon
adopt Canonical's model?
You can't trust any single-vendor-controlled operating system. Apple,
Microsoft, Canonical, RedHat, Attachmate/Novell, etc. Especially closed
source ones, but even open source ones, like Canonical has demonstrated.
I'd suggest one that is fully-controlled by the community, like Debian,
or another one of your preference.
