BSD isn’t Unix. It’s fairest to say it is a Unix. Unix was built in Murray Hill and maintained by a succession of corporations and now sits locked in a safe at a company where they will never have the clue or interest to maintain or distribute it, thanks to IBM. Everything else is just sparkling multics.

Linux could be unix if someone wanted to pay to have it certified. It’s meaningless.
Linux is unix-like.
Hard to swallow pills: GNU is not Unix and Linux is just a kernel
