Somewhat tangentially I’ll note that NixCon 2022 was sponsored by DGNUM, which is part of the French military itself (not a company that merely does business with militaries), and as far as I know there was no corresponding discussion of this nature. I wonder why.
I have now seen this argument used by several people in several different places. Obviously from people that have not done their homework properly: DGNum in this case is the nonprofit that organized NixCon 2022 (https://dgnum.eu) and that have absolutely no ties with neither any kind of military entity or the DGNUM (https://www.defense.gouv.fr/dgnum) that is part of the french army ministry.
Of course, one might mix them up when trying to find arguments to support their cause and spending maximum 10s on the question.
