The biggest example right now is the VMware lawsuit: https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/oct/28/vmware-update/ There is more on their `news' page: https://sfconservancy.org/news/ https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/oct/01/compliance-principles/ https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/aug/17/debian/ https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/jul/15/ubuntu-ip-policy/ https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/mar/31/libreplanet/ etc. And also on their copyleft compliance summary: https://sfconservancy.org/copyleft-compliance/ Individual compliance actions are often not public because one of the things that the GPL licensor who wants a a violator to come into compliance, can offer, is avoidance of the embarrassment of a public dispute.
