While both Linux and the BSDs appear to be long lost siblings on paper, both being free and open-source, Unix-like, one close look and you'll observe the fine differences. There are quite the many differences between the two, and we have compiled some of the more prominent ones for you here! 1. Linux uses the GNU General Public License (GPL) under which if someone modifies the Linux kernel and distributes it, he/she will have to release the source code for the modifications, unlike BSDs that use the BSD license. If someone modifies the BSD kernel/distribution and distributes it, he/she won’t have to release the source code at all. Rather he/she can release the source code only if he wants to. 2.

Apache License This open source license is granted by the Apache Software Foundation and...
