@jeffcliff @icedquinn @PurpCat @Lyx @sun "Plain text not PNG" should already be covered by the requirement to provide source in the preferred form for making modifications - though I am aware of, and have written about, the point that "should already be covered" is not dispositive of concerns in practice.
@mattskala its a problem that has come up in FOIA cases. people requesting local survey data and being given jpegs instead of the geolite files.
i haven't seen someone try to get away with png dumping source code personally, but i have seen overt violations (Onyx Boox are deliberate GPL violators) or half-assed compliance (ex. gab, google, prusa, just dumping out random tarball updates when convenient)
