At least one large company has been blocking shipping of Ubuntu based appliances and vm images for this and requiring they use a sanely licensed distro. Given how common packaged images are becoming it's really going to hurt Ubuntu if they don't sort it out. Their "pay us to bless your ubuntu variant" model is fine but their approach of making it hard to use the code any other way is ugly
