Eh yes. Even my TV has an open source acknowledgements section in the menu.



We got a new oven last year and it came with a sheet of paper acknowledging all the open source software it used.


I'm really curious what open source software an oven uses? I would think all it needs is timers and a temperature monitoring loop.


I didn't keep the sheet, the only one I remember is FreeType which must be for the digital display.


As does this - that's what the NOTICES file is for. When I've looked at it on TVs it looks the same: Copyright notice and license terms that they're required to bundle with any redistribution.
