This is great to hear, all Matt needs to do now is remove the stolen plugin and then all is back to some kind of normal?

We may be only back to normal if the free version of the ACF plugin is back for download at WordPress.org

Thank goodness! My faith in justice was somewhat restored.

Common sense prevails, for now at least.

“…returning and restoring WPEngine’s access to and control of its Advanced
Custom Fields (“ACF”) plugin directory listing at https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-customfields, as it existed as of September 20, 2024”

I like that. Both sides have their points but this one really crossed a line in my mind. I had become a first time ACF user just a couple weeks before it was taken over as SCF. A couple days ago I installed SCF for a project (mainly because it was easy) and now this order comes. I feel a bit jerked around here as a user.

I wonder how long the final judgement could take.
