Do you like SFOS contributions from OMP (Russia) or not?

Referring to Jolla Blog link with Sailfish OS 3.2.0 Torronsuo there a core elements of the software improvements also done by the russian software developers from Open Mobile Platform (OMP):

"Warm thanks to our partner OMP for the support and for co-developing many of the core improvements with Jolla for Torronsuo."

To be honest I don't now much more about OMP despite that they are from Russia and are developing SFOS based AuroraOS for russian and maybe Chinese market e.g. link.

Both countries are known for their malignant IT strategies and will do in my opinion many things to find their own ways in collecting big user data.

So is there an impact on SailfishOS and our hope and trust in it's independence and privacy of our user data or not?

Afaik the contributions of OMP are not open source:

"Related to your question, we only accept source code level submissions to Sailfish OS. All of the code included in Sailfish OS is thoroughly reviewed by Jolla and can be reviewed by our software licensees. This way we maintain a chain-of-trust between all involved parties.

Whether particular code contribution is Open Source, depends on how the code itself and its dependencies are licensed." answered James Noori to this question on Jolla blog to the release of Torronsuo.
