i don't have that much sympathy for xecutor because in some parts of their business they functioned as hypocrites, taking open-source code from others and putting it in their own closed proprietary software. like morally i have no issue with selling jailbroken hardware or selling devices to get around that stuff, none of that should be illegal. but it's fucked not to apply that standard of openness to yourself and your projects.

it's still unreasonable to take 20-30% of someone's monthly income to pay off a $14 million debt to a billion-dollar corporation for the so-called crime of opening up locked-down hardware. i don't care how many supposed lost sales resulted from folks breaking your monopoly right.
