Why unix is open source?
Can you explain to me why unix is open source?
Unix was originally developed at Bell Labs in the 1970s and was made available to universities for research purposes. Eventually, it became desirable to have a version of Unix that was freely available to everyone. This led to the development of the GNU operating system and the GNU General Public License, which provided a legal framework for the distribution and modification of Unix-like systems.
