alt Hacker NewsThe OP deleted that sentence and I don't think it should have be flagged and unseen by others so I have vouched for it. I understand a lot of people disagree with it, and may downvote it but that is different to flagging. ( I have upvoted in just in case )
He offer perspective from a Chinese POV, so I think it is worth people reading it. ( Not that I agree with it in any shape or form )

You are right, and the FFmpeg devs are also 100% right and I perfectly understand that.

I think earlier enforcement would have been beneficial here, just that dropping a bomb after 1 year of silence and no reminder (and we still don't know if that was the case), is a bit unpredictable, so I wanted to raise that question
