My reading of it was more ‘I think they shouldn’t do that’ rather than ‘we are going to try to stop them doing that’. A morality vs legality kind of thing.
I respect that. I just happen to think Red Hat is in the right morally as well. The right to commercially compete with a company by shamelessly ripping off their product and contributing nothing in return is not something I see as deeply moral. Trying to make that harder feels, to me, like a perfectly ethical thing for Red Hat to do.
And as I said elsewhere, “the code” is not the value that the RHEL clones are trying to rip off and commercialize.
