华为,等等,不过是在拾取Linux/Unix 的恩惠而已,毫无它自己的创造

From this brilliant essay written in 2004: https://www.usenix.org/legacy/event/usenix04/tech/sigs/geer.txt :
.
"A computing monoculture is a danger, a security danger, a national security danger. It is a danger on principle. It is a danger in practice. It is avoidable and mitigable, but it is neither cheap nor easy to do so if you have to begin from where we are now. [...]
We have remembered history and considered other brushes with monoculture -- all of them coming at the hand of man -- and in so remembering history we have the opportunity to not repeat it. We have met the enemy, and he is us."
