Both are in the wrong. WP Engine are morally wrong not to pay back with developer time or money to enhance the Open Source project they are making money with. But Automattic's claim that "Managed WordPress" and in extension "WordPress Plugin" and "WordPress Agency" should be covered by their trademark is crazy.

The problem is that they call it "wordpress" but it is actually "fork of wordpress". It was already made clear that if they used an unmodified wordpress they could continue to use the mark. Thats literally what half the blog post said.
