“We didn’t buy Red Hat, and we’re mad that IBM did what we would’ve done” - Oracle

I fully agree that what IBM did was basically openly and flagrantly violate the GPL. I just find it very ironic that Oracle, of all companies, has the cojones to call out Red Hat when Oracle is the champion of playing unfairly with open source. Oracle is one of the companies that wrote the definition of embrace, extend, and extinguish along with Microsoft and even IBM.
