This is not about the OS, it's about busybox. The companies in question have released the source code, and Makefiles, and have complied with all license terms, according to their (and many others') understanding of the license.

Sure, you can tell CE companies to take their ball and go home, but I think it would be unfortunate for the industry and the community to fragment over this issue, when it appears to me that someone is just overreaching the license.
