    For those that don’t know, SUSE is behind the OpenSUSE Linux distribution afaik. This would have large implications.

    The wrinkle for SUSE is that a sale to US owners would complicate its narrative considerably: American corporations can be compelled under the US CLOUD Act to hand over customer data held on servers located anywhere in the world.

    I would call that more than “complicate”…
