Does Linux spy on its users?I don't think so. Since the code is publicly scrutinized any such code will be found out pretty quickly.
For those in the computer field linux is heaven.
Linux is especially good on the server side so it makes sense to port SQL Server to linux.
...or in computing Linux is a field?
The one problem/benefit of Linux that I see businesses reason why they hold back from adopting Linux is that its fragmentation is very reminiscent of the Unix fragmentation of a couple of decades before.
RHEL seems to be the "standard" that most organizations in health care use. I don't see that as fragmented at all. The biggest issue is the amount of changes between RHEL 6 and 7, but if you have decent Linux administrators, it isn't an issue. You wouldn't run a data center using Windows without decent admins, so no difference there. The real difference may be that Windows admins are a dime a dozen, you actually have to pay for a good Linux admin. Those guys are really in demand!
