THIS IS COMPLETELY CRAZY: Check out this news article, which claims that recently-released KGB documents show that, during the 1980s, various Open Source projects, including some developed by the Free Software Foundation, unknowingly received money from the Soviet government totaling more than $175,000!! Is it fake?
