It looks like the Free Software Foundation is not standing on the sidelines any longer and have called out Neo4j in the newly filed Amicus Brief filed February 28th, 2025.

Many in the community are only just starting to realize the potential impact of this case on FOSS licensing

    I'm sorry but I've not been following this.

    So Neo4j added additional restrictions to their "GPL" licence, those were removed by a project that redistributed it.

    FSF called out Neo4j and Neo4j just relicensed their entire project rather than make it properly GPL, but won't stop hassling the redistribution of the old version. Presumably to stop a GPL version of their older code being out there?
