    the firmware is not part of the linux kernel (it only works with the kernel); you will not be able to read the source unless you work for the company that owns it.

      oh, you meant that since russians cannot contribute, then they’re not going to work with american companies that want to have their firmwares supported by the kernel.

        it’s the other way around: the russians (and likely the chinese soon) won’t be allowed to contribute so that linux can keep working with american companies & their firmware.
