                @smpl @db0 yeah, which has 0 legs to stand on. Hence the question about nominative use …

        explain to me your understanding of nominative use, for a start

            what… what exactly do you think people like dreamhost and bluehost and such do? in your mind, do they have special dreampress and bluepress “vendored” versions of wordpress?

            good lord
