Vendors below the “*Startup*” sponsorship level have also lost access to detailed per-firmware analytics. In August, custom LVFS API access will be cut for non-Startup vendors, with automated upload limits following in December.

Will vendor just stop use lvfs and linux not have any firmware?

I doubt it. It sounds like it just limits vendor access to analytics. It doesn’t stop users downloading the firmware from lvfs. Correct me if I’m wrong.

We need to get Foss nerds in gov to put public funding towards the kinds of projects. Donations and corporate charity aren’t enough
