    The right to fork the project is granted to anyone by the creater of the project (who by the way is not the current maintainer).

    Calling a fork “project hijacking” means the person granting the right by license was acting dishonesty to begin with, wich makes me question who is acting in bad faith. Being able to modify and redistribute open source code are elemental freedoms the FOSS community thrives on. These freedoms do not mandate any reason and they certainly don’t legitimise anyones judgement.
