Dear all,
Vrijschrift to Dutch Parliament: EU Cyber Resilience Act will harm competitiveness
The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) proposal aims to make products containing software and
software itself more secure. [1] This objective is endorsed by Vrijschrift. The Minister
of Economic Affairs and Climate has written to the Senate that concerns regarding open
source software have been “extensively addressed” by means of a
recital. However, recitals do not have independent legal force; the amendments of the
Council of the EU are ineffective. The CRA, if adopted in this form, will seriously harm
the open source ecosystem and the competitiveness of the European economy.
