Prusa's slicer is just a fork of Slic3r so I'd say that's fair play. Prusa just aggressively brands opensource stuff.
I mean, they fork it, develop it further, and give it back to the community. That's entirely within the spirit of open source!
"Aggressively branding open-source stuff" would be like Chinese Alibaba sellers ripping off open hardware or Amazon redistributing PostgreSQL as an AWS SaaS offering.
> Free and open-source
> PrusaSlicer is based on Slic3r by Alessandro Ranellucci. Thanks to the strong community and a team of developers in Prusa Research we can continually add new features. Follow the development on our GitHub.

It's nice to pay for actually open development.
