Yes, the FCC might ban your operating system
http://prpl.works/2015/09/21/yes-the-fcc-might-ban-your-operating-system/
Over the last few weeks a discussion has flourished over
the FCC's Notification of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM) on modular
transmitters and electronic labels for wireless devices. Some
folks have felt that the phrasing has been too
Chicken-Little-like and that the FCC's proposal doesn't affect
the ability to install free, libre or open source operating
system. The FCC in fact says their proposal has no effect on
open source operating systems or open source in general. The FCC
is undoubtedly wrong.
