Summary: The Linux Foundation is gradually becoming a shadow of Microsoft, just like the Open Source Initiative, where most of the money comes from Microsoft and the official blog promotes Microsoft, its proprietary software, and Microsoft’s side in a class action lawsuit over GPL violations (with 9 billion dollars in damages at stake).

Okay somebody quickly code up a free alternative to Linux
GNU's Hurd was supposed to be this iirc. That clearly hasn't gotten far and hasn't been progressing quickly.
GNU Hurd development was started in 1990 as a follow-up project of another, failed GNU kernel from years before. Linus Torvalds didn't start Linux development before April 1991.
