Hmm, it would be interesting if all these governments switching to Linux would make their own distros.

Interesting idea. Cops already have their own Matrix fork (https://element.io/en/case-studies/tchap) and Android fork for secure messaging and secure phones. I haven't played with the secured phone, but it should be a custom locked-down Android ROM.

Creating distros is easy, funding for the volunteers upstream is what's lacking. I hope the move also prompts them to start supporting upstream with funds, code, infrastructure, engineers, benefits and so on.
