=> ↺ Introducing Himmelblau: Seamless Azure AD Authentication for Linux
Microsoft’s Azure AD (Entra ID) is a popular choice for identity and device management.

=> ↺ HashiCorp's license change
Readers have been pointing us to HashiCorp's announcement that it is moving to its own "Business Source License" for some of its (formerly) open-source products. Like other companies (example) that have taken this path, HashiCorp is removing the freedom to use its products commercially in ways that it sees as competitive. This is, in a real sense, an old and tiresome story.
The lessons to be drawn from this change are old as well. One is to beware of depending on any platform, free or proprietary, that is controlled by a single company. It is a rare company that will not try to take advantage of that control at some point.
