No, it sometimes does not. The crux is that this is a somewhat novel GPL violation, and their knee-jerk reaction to freeze development is extreme. It's a weird story.

They just "froze" upstream development, but it was purely performative; there isn't actually active upstream development.

If you wanted to fork it and continue development you certainly could.
