Correct. Per the GPL if you have the binary you have a legal right to the code.
Also the GPL does contain clauses that stipulate that outside agreements cannot excuse
anyone
from the conditions of the license, see the No Surrender of Others' Freedom section.
Also keep in mind that you can download the RHEL ISOs for free without a dev license from
this
page:
https://developers.redhat.com/products/rhel/download You can't update the
packages, but
you can install that version of RHEL on your computer and use it. So anyone grabbing
that ISO
has legal right to the source code for the base system.
Who says that developer account will be available soon, Have Red Hat made a commitment to
keep it?
People want to update a system and not fart about, updating via ISO or installing a new
system
every 6 months is a joke.
