California's billionaire tax: What's at risk for the biggest state economy in America California's billionaire tax would generate quick revenue, but Norway's example shows the longer-term economic impact of targeting the wealthy is unclear. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/17/california-billionaire-tax.html #TopNews #News #California #Norway #theWorldBank

I foresee:

1. #Debian eventually following #MidnightBSD's lead and cutting #California off from #FreeSoftware; after lengthy mailing list discussions where at least one person tries to deny with convoluted nonsense the plain reading of the statute.

2. A storm when someone points out that the #MobaXTerm version of APT isn't exempt, nor is RPM. (Goodness knows what IBM is going to do.)

3. An even bigger storm when someone adds an 'age' field to systemd's JSON User Records, to be enforced and served out over Desktop Bus via a systemd-aged service or some such. Much fun if that someone comes from a #GDPR country.

4. Some nutter taking a Linux distribution to court because it doesn't enable developers to control whether 16-year-olds can install rustc and busybox.
