So, what about redistribution of copies?
learn the difference between trademarks and software licences
So, if you have a license that says  "the distribution of the whole
must be on the terms of this License," and " You may not impose any
further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted
herein", it really means that you can add something that adds
restrictions.

I could use debian, but then I'd have to learn to type apt-get instead
of rpm. I'd prefer to continue using the commands that Red Hat
baited us with
so learn it or shut up with your Redhat hate for no reason
I have my reason.  You don't have to like it.

For me Redhat and CentOS have their place, together in the same environment:

RedHat --> Production Systems, with paid-for support, something goes wrong then I have some commercial comeback to get it fixed. High change control environment.

CentOS --> QA, Development and Test Systems, and sometimes, non-critical infrastructure, community support, more roll-your-own fixes and workarounds. Less change control.
