video: https://youtu.be/YP0wfUNC7D4 Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have so much to talk about. First of all, KDE developers have launched their own company called TechPaladin Software. Also, the CodeWeavers team has released the latest version of their crossover software with Crossover 25. The Garuda Linux team have the latest release of their distribution called Broadwing. And also the EFF, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, has released a new open source tool for detecting Cell Site Simulators called RayHunter. And we'll talk about what all that meant later in the show. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and open source world.

On 14 November 2019, the U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS) proposed a sudden and unprecedented 492% increase in fees required to access historical records held by the USCIS Genealogy Program. Many of these records should already be publicly accessible under the law. The USCIS is essentially holding them hostage, demanding individuals pay exorbitant and unjustifiable fees to access documents of our immigrant ancestors. YOU HAVE UNTIL DECEMBER 30, 2019, TO SUBMIT COMMENTS TO HELP STOP THIS FEE INCREASE. We strongly urge you to visit https://www.recordsnotrevenue.com/ and protest this action! News You Can Use and Share Verogen, Inc., has purchased GEDmatch. Drew explains the new opt in/out requirement to accept the terms of service in order to continue to use the site. MyHeritage added 18.6 million new historical records in October 2019. In the first half of November, they added another 18.8 million records.
