COUNTERPOINT:
FLOSS is the product of the thousands of hours of UNPAID LABOR GIFTED TO THE FLOSS TRADEMARK HOLDERS by the community of developers, writers, designers, trainers, testers, marketers who rally around their vision.
FLOSS trademark holders would not have anything to show and even less to cash out without the unpaid labor given to them.
so no. nobody owes them shit if they decide to enforce their trademark property rights & stiff the community.

Do not #Copyleft licences, like #GPLv3, work by ensuring that **any** software that includes the FOSS code be #FOSS also?
What the above describes is #softwareTheft, right?
For example #MastodonDevs by allowing #HellaDoge to not provide source code for years, with a notification of such by us, are allowing software #theft, right?
