I’m curious about what you think on how it will affect the Linux community and distros (especially RHEL based distros like Fedora or Rocky).

It seems like what I’ve read from GPLv2 and GPLv3 as well as RH’s EULAs, contrary to some people here, Red Hat technically didn’t violate the GPL, but they are already not following the spirits of GPL and free software/open source (People expect free/open source software as in they can easily find the source publicly accessible in GitHub, GitLab, CodeBerg, or whatever Git, Subversion,… repos of your company or organization). And I think they don’t believe in free marketing either, many other companies are aware that people are pirating their softwares, or compiling the software themselves (if it’s open source) and give them as if it’s from them for free; especially when you’re dominating a market segment, it can make people exposed and relying on your softwares, so that anyone will mandate to use your softwares because it’s “industry standards”.
