So we have given it enough time [0] to see where the Rust Foundation is going and it turns out that I was wrong. It doesn't look good so far and there is a reason why I said the trademarks part was 'Very important'.
The foundation is slowly consuming itself into a Linux Foundation like corporate organization that is in the interests of Big Tech companies and not the community. I had these suspicions before [1] about the way it was organized, but ignored it.
Now this draconian trademark policy is strike 3 and is already putting off those supporting the organization. Before that, it was them setting up as a 501(c)6 like the Linux Foundation and afterwards then have board seats for sale for Big Tech companies as many have pointed out [2].
It just seems that this 'foundation' has become another scam.
