So in a nut shell - the #GPLv2 says if #RedHat give you the binaries, they must also give you the source code (if you want it).
But if you do something they don't like (e.g. break their EULA) they can refuse to give you more/future binaries, and without those binaries you're not entitled to more/future source code either.
And it's always been this way, but it's not been strictly enforced before now.
@mackaj Yes. And that's why Red Hatters are *technically* correct in saying "nothing changed" but also everything's changed lol
Rocky (if I've understood this right) suggest they've found a way to work around this legitimately via pay-per-use cloud instances that give them access to binaries, thereby granting them the right to download sources as well.
We'll have to wait and see if Red Hat add changes to lock that down too.
