open sourcing is the best faith solution, especially since they have no IP rights benefits in keeping it. It also allows the community to fix any stupid bugs, like GTAV for example.

    They may still be using code that’s in their dedicated servers

    don't? Also to be clear, if that's a huge problem, you could also just BSD the code, and call it a day, you would need to publicly release most of the new code based on it, but that's not going to ruin you as a company, especially if people can fix bugs in it for freesies.

    Or just open source the next server component that you need. That's the simple solution.
