the users and maintainers of Linux itself, the systems that make up Linux, and even the maintainers and contributors to many Linux distros, who are real human people and not faceless corporations, think following unjustified laws is unjustified

They do? Sorry but this law is a nothing burger I don’t think I’ve seen any serious contributors to serious distros say anything about it that matches the tone of Reddit/Lemmy posts or single maintainer distros.

Hell the systemd fork being slop by someone who didn’t understand the existing systemd ratelimiting really excemplified how reddit the whole circus is.
