In 2003, The SCO Group, which had acquired the Unix assets, made headlines worldwide when it filed a $1 billion lawsuit against IBM. SCO alleged that IBM had misused SCO's Unix code to improve its own Linux offerings, violating their contract. The company then went further, threatening to revoke the licenses of Linux users and demanding payment from major corporations, creating immense uncertainty in the open-source community. This move was widely seen as an attack on the very foundation of Linux and sparked a legendary legal war. The lawsuits continued for years, but SCO ultimately failed to prove its claims. The litigation drained the company's resources and led to its eventual bankruptcy in 2007.
