That’s not what this article says. Earliest application was March 5, 2024.

Basically, he’s a CEO and therefore thinks every dollar on earth is his by right. I think the best summary is that he’s using his competing positions at the non-profit foundation to benefit his for-profit company.

Tl;Dr is that matt mullenweg saw that other people were making money from free open source software, and his capitalism boner is trying to fuck everyone over.

He has control over both WPEngines competition and the non-profit Foundation, and is using his Foundation position to try extort his for-profit company’s competition. Typical CEO behaviour.

So… Same as it’s been since the war on terror began in 2001?

Oh, now they can assassinate white people in first world countries, not just drop bombs on weddings in mideast countries. I see. Totally makes all the difference.

(I am feeling very cynical here haha, I get this is a big significant legal precedent for the USA but yeah)

In my country we’ve had these electronic labels for many years, using them was part of my first real job a decade ago. And here they definitely can be updated centrally, and in near real time.
