I'll say to you what I said to the other commentor: RISC-V is an ISA, nothing less, nothing more, and it is 100% open-source. It is not trying to be anything else. Yes, hardware implementations from processor vendors can have different licensing and be proprietary, but that is not the fault of RISC-V, nor does that have anything else to do with it. RISC-V, as an ISA, and only an ISA, is completely open-source and not liable for the bs of OEMs.
