Sue is probably not the better description of the thoughts I had. Let's say, can't the developers do anything in an act of retaliation? Given that so much work came from the community.

> ... advertised

Yeah. Wrong choice of word. Using one kind of license to get the attention of public is in spirit akin to advertising(that was the line of thought I had). I am not doubling down on stupified things I said, I am tryina explain what I thought.

So... if I can re-ask the question , I take my dumb-comment yesterday back and ask it like this :

can't the community do in act of retaliation against these acts ?

can't we mandate community approval for license updates when the community is also participating in contribution and popularizing its usage

I do not have anything against Redis. What is going to happen to the future of FOSS and software in general , if once open(open source and Libre) projects end up walled or proprietary etc.
