Underestimated Risks
Even though open source software can usually be used free of charge by end users, it is neither by definition free of charge ("freeware") nor free of copyrights ("no public domain"). Especially buyers (with regard to existing software) or clients (with regard to software yet to be developed) should be aware of this. This does not only apply if one intends to resell (or license) the corresponding software. Even those who want to release the new or the software to be developed again under an open source license - as is often the case with blockchain projects - are urged to be more cautious, because: A careless handling of open source software can, among other things, lead to the fact that the corresponding end product may not be (re-)distributed.
GDPR for members of the board of directors and management?
Those who do nothing expose themselves to liability risks. Who wants to? In the event of non-compliance with the European Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), members of the management expose themselves to the risk of board liability, but also to possible civil and criminal liability.
