    Serious concern and asshole move? Yes. Gpl violation? Not sure. You could argue you are not restricted to do whatever you want with the code you receive with a subscription. But if you share the code, they don’t want you as a customer anymore and won’t give you new code. I don’t know if the GPL allows that.

      This clearly goes against the intention of the GPL. Maybe not illegal.

        That I agree with. Maybe this will cause the FSF to create a 4th version.
