        The government distros (BOSS and IT@School) are for government offices and schools, respectively. Also, both are open-source. Mostly they add better support for Indian languages, and some educational software.

        Most governments use some sort of enterprise Linux distros, not their own distros. Even when they do, it’s their distros. Why would they worry about censorship and surveillance?

          No, you need to worry about censorship and surveillance when using a government distro. Especially, when it comes to China or Turkey.

            On your own machine, sure. But I think OP was referring to government departments
