    — “we don’t like people ripping off our work without any added value”

    — “Here, let me push this to your staging environment, totally breaking your quality process”

    — “No”

    — “Well, what the hell do you want broo?”

    I don’t think they have ever hidden the fact this is about money. I don’t like the fact this is about money, but the fact that others were cloning and selling their efforts for a cheaper price is awful.

        1. they are not breaking any law. This is totally allowed. You can use FOSS to create a commercial product.

        2. they are major contributors to the Linux space. And they’ll keep contributing.

        3. It’s their effort, they created a business around it, and it cycles back to push Linux forward.

        4. this isn’t even going to affect average users. This is going to take money from companies that probably have the money to pay. For other companies, there are other distributions available.
