Imagine Iranians/North Koreans/Chinese/Russians and the like signing up and using Claude Mythos hardening their stuff (if Mythos is not just a Myth of course)...

Iran clearly needs to start using OPNsense Business Edition :P

Win-Win for both Iran and the OPNsense Developers !!!

Is it like that over there ?!

That would put them in even more trouble then and an even bigger and a lot more horrible war, because no debt to all those weirdos who control the world...

Bummer! :(

I live in the USA, I can say what I want, and you are not wrong! Our electronics prices fluctuate so wildly these days that's it's difficult to get through an equipment purchase.

And that said, this is probably more politics than should be allowed, here for OPNsense, not more politics.

Since they make you sign some document in which you agree that they can throw you into Guantanamo for whatever reason (or none...) they wish at any time as long as you are there my plans to ever go there went from maybe to NEVER !!!
