This merger is one of the worst thing that can happen to OpenSource and Linux in General. In The Past few large company made my spine shivers as much as Microsoft and AOL. Both Very large Company have made Our lives Hell in respect to privacy and security.
The Security of Microsoft is well establish as being poor. But it is the almost forgotten facts about AOL that need looking into. AOL's Security Policies (Past and Present) to censorise and scan all your mail and network trafic is terrifying. That made them a company not to be trusted, and certainly not with Free Software.
Free is the Freedom to choose. If they can start to provide Software that would not be opened (Source) as AOL's Addition. It would mean the end of RedHat Quality Services. It would follow that Other's Linux Vendor's would be unable to follow AOL's new Standards and could create a shift to remove competition between Linux Vendors Solutions. I rather keep my options open.
On the other side, it would give a good boost to really compete with M$. I would rather see a major influx of investment than a buy out.
