I recently had a conversation with a colleague about [#opensourcehardware](https://mastodon.social/tags/opensourcehardware) and exploitation. I mentioned the recent [@prusa](https://lemmy.ml/c/prusa) post. Today I learned of how Miniware has similarly exploited work by the community around the [@PINE64](https://fosstodon.org/@PINE64) [#pinecil](https://mastodon.social/tags/pinecil) in the development of their TS101. It seems Miniware is refusing to release schematics or code: [https://github.com/Ralim/IronOS/discussions/1664#discussioncomment-5680597](https://github.com/Ralim/IronOS/discussions/1664#discussioncomment-5680597) I haven't investigated this further. Are things as they seem? Why don't we treat these companies and products like the bad actors they are?
