Nope. Red Hat is not evil.

The real evil is Oracle, who takes Red Hat Enterprise Linux, cherry pick
which patch that Red Hat had provided in its SRPMS, and add new patch that
will make their database run fast. Rename that distro to Oracle Enterprise
Linux, and charge the customer very high for support service.

So, their job just to determine which patch is suitable, and then charge for
profit. So easy.

And why Red Hat should make it easy to them to cherry pick the patch? Red
Hat work so hard, but in the end their client moved to Oracle Enterprise
Linux. Give them a whole code dump, and let them figure it out by
themselves.

Still GPL compliant, and CentOS won't care. They are just rebuilder.
