I welcome this change actually. Now users can clearly see what others have been saying forever: If you don't pay for the product, you ARE the product.

    With Linux you pay for support if you ever need it. Most end users will never need support, but businesses running Linux servers pay Red Hat a shit load to support them in case shit ever hits the fan. Like giving away a free car, but only certain people know how to do maintenance on it, and they all work for the manufacturer.
