YOU ARE HERE ☞ Example of Outsourcing to Contractors (Likely Without Tender/Bidding)
Summary: The Linux Foundation fancies giving contracts to entities outside the Foundation; they don’t seem to be doing much except bagging that money
THE Linux Foundation (LF) is outsourcing. The latest-available IRS filing lists under “Independent Contractors” about $10,000,000 worth of contracts (over a million dollars each). Top of the list:

Yes, that’s Proxima. As per their own site:

Over 2.5 million dollars for a company so small?
What do they do anyway?
Let’s examine the very latest “items” (not original! Just links!) in Linux.com:

Notice who posted all of these items (the domain and what it says in the brackets):

So what does the LF’s staff do all day? Even the accounting got oursourced. It seems like these people are busy partying with the money.
'Linux' Foundation 'Europe', for instance, pays some dude that nobody ever heard of before more than $600,000 a year to show his face in ‘Linux’ Foundation-funded puff pieces, pretending that ‘Linux’ Foundation isn’t just some instrument of US global domination (more than 90% of the LF’s money is spent inside the US, as we showed before).
So what are they doing all day long? For almost 5 years already “Linux” Foundation has had a BROKEN SPACE BAR, as it cannot type its description properly (it’s still the same half a dozen errors in 2022 as it was years ago). █
