IBM has a history of crushing stuff like this after a few years. Breath status: held, for now.
How exactly they do this? License bs?
Some example for this happening?
Sure, they killed CentOS a few years and then shut off their git to public access. CentOS successors such as Alma or Rocky now rely on ripping cloud images to access sources (because they still ship GPL software, so they must).
Just a recent example.
