Well in Austria there is a law: if you walk through an area that is not public and do this for a very long time years and suddenly the owner stops you from doing this, you could sue him for stopping you doing a usual thing.
But real life issues and software laws are more than two kind of shoes. They are two kind of universes.
Right and Code changes always happens, some approve i some not. And there will be always people not like it.
Fact is the kernel is a GPL thing so logically the coders want to keep it GPL,
