In both 1 and 2, there are a varying amount of blobs spread around kernel tarballs and even kernel git repositories, and Allwinner has been made aware of those being in violation with the GPL quite a numerous amount of time.
Has allwinner gone and resolved all of these issue in the meantime (which is only a brief timeperiod measured in, oh, i don't know, 3 years)? No. At best they did a few but only increased the number of blobs upon every new kernel release.
Stop your nonsense, besides it just being inane, it is quite perpendicular to the truth.

So this is the person I was talking about. Hey, libv!
First, libv does not get what is being said, for example, in https://lwn.net/Articles/698452/
The situation with Allwinner fits quite well with what Greg and Linus talk about.
Second, libv as a business person sucks bigly. He was being a PITA to Allwinner and, from what I deduced, would then propose to them to make the problem go away (develop himself the software) for quite some money.
