If they find the license nonsensical then they have no right to use the code as the license is
the only way they have a legitimate use of the code in question. If they don't want to adhere
the license they are free to go elsewhere but IMO they are also liable to disgorge any revenue
to date to the copyright holders as the product is violating copyright.

They can't just stop using Linux, they have to pay damages.
