WCH IDE MounRiver Studio is violating Open Source Code. [message #1859754]

WCH IDE MounRiver Studio is violating open-source rules and failing to comply with the GNU GCC Toolchain's GPL License. This behavior is unacceptable and demands collective action.

Numerous users have reported their experiences with WCH's MounRiver Studio, and the evidence is shocking. When users have requested the modified source code for the GNU GCC Toolchain, as per the open-source guidelines, they have been met with nothing but silence from WCH. This complete lack of response demonstrates a blatant disregard for the rules and principles that have formed the foundation of the open-source community.

Open source thrives on collaboration, transparency, and the exchange of ideas. It's disheartening to see a company like WCH betray these values and take advantage of the hard work put into developing the GNU GCC Toolchain.

The open-source community must stand together against such misconduct. Please share this information far and wide. Reach out to other open-source communities, forums, and platforms to ensure this message reaches as many people as possible. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that companies like WCH & MounRiver Studio understand that violating open-source licenses will not be tolerated.

Is this not handled with their toolchain's download's "RISC-V Embedded GCC/README.md" "Compliance" section and contents?
