John Teague The code used and developed by WordPress and Automattic for WordPress is GPL and available. It always has been, and will continue to be. And perhaps it’s instructive to point out that WordPress has defended the GPL, and that Wix ripped off WordPress code, lied, and then pulled this latest “licensing” stunt, not the other way round. Competition, whether motivating or not, is simply not the point here, and shouldn’t be used as a distraction from the real culprit or their actions and their behavior.
