One issue is that OpenOffice has had unfixed remote code execution vulnerabilities for years, but won't shepherd it's users to the actually maintained version, while still pretending to be under active maintenance itself in what's a hop, skip, and a jump away from fraud IMO.

Meh, cyber resilience act will kill it. Two or three years and it's gone.

Shipping a product with known security vulnerability is not only forbidden, it's also explicitly something manufacturer will be liable for.

Isn't that just in Europe? They can forbid whatever they want, good luck stopping an open source project from getting installed because of security reasons lol

I guess it won't be prepacked in distros but I'm not sure any distro still ships with OO.

US cybersecurity agency is also coming up with its own version, and then the rest of the world will follow.

yeah that’s a good point
