... which include this
''
It's even more outrageous that Automattic has chosen trademarks as their method to get their "Al Capone" when up until 2018 they were part owners of WP Engine before selling their stake to Silver Lake!
''

If indeed Automattic has sold its share of WP Engine, then surely the buyer should be considered to have contributed
to WordPress by buying them.

dhh post ends by
"But I suspect Automattic wants to have their cake and eat it too. "

This seems a apt summary.
