Absolute complete and utter nonsense.

That is what any company aims for, even if they don't achieve it.
It is the simple objective, and outcome, of capitalism. Beat the rest.

So this is about growing/expanding market share, which then equates to
profit. Why wouldn't you?

 
(I'm not arguing the right or wrongs of this, but it is the natural
conclusion, if you don't get broken up for monopolisation.)

If you argue anything else you really are quite simply gaslighting.


You have grossly oversimplified a complicated situation and completely ignored corporate responsibility which is something Red Hat takes very seriously.
 
I really wish all the Hatters who have been wheeled out in defence of
this decision stop their corporate mealy mouthed blather, which anyone
can see straight through, and be honest.

Oh, and stop treating every CentOS user as a 'free loader'.

It really is quite offensive and you are aren't winning any hearts and
minds right now.

I'll admit something about Mark's reply didn't bring out the best in me.  However, I'll take every opportunity to dote on the team and on Red Hat, they've done some amazing things that we have all benefited from.  There is a lot more to Red Hat than the dollars and cents you're trying to distill us down into.
