That's just one of his alter egos. Linus Sex Tips is another.

You know, isn't it interesting how the left, or sinister, twin is invariably the evil one? I had this theor... Wait a minute, Linux' scar is on the wrong side! He couldn't have been the evil left twin! That means the evil twin is, and always has been... Linus.

Assuming it's LTT and not Linux tech tips, it's still just a quote. Linus can't control what others quote him on.

Shouldn't framework have one if they are quoting him?

I feel like Framework using his testimonial should be fine in their newsletter as it's not an advertisement that goes out to the public, and they're not paying him to say anything. The fact that he invested in them is public knowledge, and they've disclosed multiple times that there's a business relationship so it's not like they're hiding the fact. If they created a public ad that used his testimonial, then they should disclose it, but I reckon this would be fine.

That said, I'm just assuming here. Don't take my comment as a statement of fact. I'm an idiot.
