conspiracy hypothesis.
Conspiracies happen. Not every event is brought forth by a single
person. I remember a time when scads of us Linux enthusiasts conspired
to depose Microsoft. "Conspiracy theory" is not an insult, regardless
of how people use the phrase.
I bet conspiracies happen all the time. Many people spend time
conspiring. But very few conspirations succeed or even have a little
effect. But it isn't the case here.
When a company takes action to increase its share of the market
and/or its cash flow, we normally do not call that a conspiration. It is
legitimate to write about it and discuss the actions it takes.
Discussing the effect and the cause of these actions does not mean we
consider it a conspiracy. One of the characters of a conspiracy is to be
secret. In the case of RedHat, it isn't, they have stated it publicly.
