You asked whether Unix was open source in the context of a macbook. The Unix derivative used on a Macbook is, indeed, open source.

No, I asked if Unix was open source. The macOS kernel is a BSD derivative. BSD != Unix. If the comment was to hold true, they should have said BSD wants your MacBook.

BSD is derived from Unix source, so it is Unix. Most BSDs cannot be distributed using the Unix name because of lack of trademark permission. However, MacOS is an officially certified Unix: https://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/
