Sorry, I’m a Unix guy. Proudly produced in New Jersey and California. By American’s (I’ve met most of them in fact!).
Hahaha. Are you using UNIX on an old PDP/11 or are you running Linux on your PC? Let’s take a close look at Linux, shall we?
Kernel: From Finland
GNOME: From Mexico
KDE: From Germany
Device Drivers: From all over the world
Toolchain: GNU (mostly US but contributions from all over)
etc… etc… etc…
UNIX was a great system and it is still has a big impact on the world but it doesn’t belong to CA and NJ anymore than the internet does. The rest of the world has taken the ball and they are sprinting down the field while we’re all busy giving each other high-fives for inventing this s**t 30 FREAKING YEARS AGO.
Americans are gonna be like those old Brits you see drinking themselves to death in the pubs, talking about how great their empire used to be.
