I'm not sure what the implication of this post is?

It seems you're saying Matt brought the domain thesis.com because he knew thesis wasn't under GPL?

Does that in anyway make it justified?

We should totally have the discussion about the fact that Chris Pearson is once again going against GPL. And it's frankly disgusting. (He's still displaying his "patent-pending color scheme picker" messaging on his sales page for thesis, which is also down right wrong.)

But you also don't have to be Matt's cheerleader and try to make him out to be justified The way he's reopened the discussion around people violating gpl is nothing more then bullying.
