It contains parts of BSD. macOS' kernel is based off of the Mach kernel, and their current kernel is called XNU (for Mac OS X is not UNIX, despite it being UNIX certified since 10.5). IIRC, the kernel is split up into three parts: the mach portion, the BSD portion, and the IOKit/driver portion.

A person is pondering cutting your salary to a tenth of what it is now. Even if you get a couple hundred million per year, you bet you'd be "rabid" trying to convince the person not to do that.

Wikipedia's largest funder by far is Google;[…]

[…]if Article 13 passes Google will have to start paying for the music it streams on YouTube.
How is the former statement related to the latter?
Wikipedia has become ubiquitous, it's almost like a public utility at this point.
Like internet access in general, right? …No?
This is where the monopolization issues rear their head.
Who has a monopoly on what? Wikipedia may have a "monopoly" on online encyclopedias, but you can always use another online encyclopedia if you so choose. This is less a case for ISPs, even if you include a cell network as an ISP (I don't). The same goes for Google: it has the majority for search engines, but you are not forced to use Google. You can just as easily use Bing.
Denying service to the public because you don't want to have to pay for music streams is a risky endeavour.
…And Wikipedia and streaming music is related… how? If you mean Google being the main funder of Wikimedia Foundation, then citation is still needed.
Masnick publishes so many articles in his opposition to Article 13 that he almost seems rabid.
If someone had a gun to your head and is weighing the options to shoot or not shoot, you'd bet you'd be "rabid" to persuade the person not to shoot you.
The two logos are only similar in that they're apples. Other than that, the Norway apple is missing Apple's distinctive bite mark.
Thus they are different.
Also, unless they updated it recently, the Apple logo is all black. An earlier iteration of the Apple apple had rainbow stripes. Their first ever logo had Isaac Newton.
(Of course, if the app contains what looks like a server login+password, you can make an educated guess as to its security.)
Uh…
Alderson poked around inside the Android build of the app, and spotted a few of insecure practices, including the username and password of the programmer[…]
Also:
We can hardly say this right exists when most apps ship without source code. This developer appears to have accidentally published it.
There are other ways of checking the security of an app, such as what APIs it calls.
[…]as if someone should care about some brat using a brand name in his video.
Let's flip this around: it's now your brat that does this. His video is taken down and he gets arrested. But since he's underage, you are now in jail and are found guilty of violating copyright. What do you do?
There is no evidence that Article 13 will "break the internet" any more than the DMCA or ContentID have.
That's partly because Article 13 hasn't been enacted and enforced.
And yes, DMCA has broken things. Maybe not the internet, but companies have become devious and are saying any tampering with their product is an automatic DMCA violation and is punishable. Even if such "tampering" is repairing. Just look at John Deere and their new tractors, which requires an EULA that forbids unlicensed repair and modification.
