AFAIK, Windows is still closed source. I guess some parts of Microsoft have not embraced open source :)

So are parts of Red Hat. I guess Red Hat hasn't embraced open source.
Their flagship OS is completely Open Source, which is what was being alluded to.

I'd be interested in seeing the source for microsoft's Telemetry, if you have a link? :)

I thought we are talking about Microsoft? But yes, some parts of Red Hat do not embrace open source :)
My point was that your comment was absolutely silly. Embracing open source doesn't mean never producing closed source. Contributing in commits and/or money is also embracing open source.

You confuse embrace with replace.

OK if that's your definition of embracing.

Btw, you can make your point without bringing in Red Hat. It sounds absolutely silly to me :)

Out of curiosity, which parts of Red Hat don't embrace Open Source?

I'm trying to think of some, and drawing a blank so far...

Maybe I was wrong. I thought OpenShift is a proprietary product, but they actually open source it.
