(I understand correctly that you are describing your personal experience
copying open-source technology into proprietary hardware, right?)
I didn't know this, from a technical pov I find it extremely surprising, from
a moral pov a little concerning, from a legal perspective I am appalled
and I hope the people responsible will get their response one day.

I wonder how you can ask people who weren't there if something
that you witnessed is right...

But I guess all this is just the language barrier...
