    No it’s not, anyone can get a license to create an ARM chipset but you do need to pay for a license.

      I still don’t understand. Is it like RHEL (they give you all the source code) or more like Windows?

        It’s neither. It’s a specification that you can use to build your own chip.

        So it’s more like MPEG where you can read the doc and create your own implementation.

            How can you have a preference if you don’t understand?

              You didn’t say it’s fully open-source so RISC-V is better no matter how “open” ARM is

                Yes, on the licensing front RISC-V is better.
