RHEL no longer open source

Seems like IBM is going to make RHEL closed source. What's everyone's opinion about the move? I feel RHEL is now the evil villain distro of the community.

What are the implications of this move on fedora? I've been thinking of moving to fedora but I'm not so sure now

If i'm not mistaken I don't think that Fedora will be affected because Fedora is upstream from RHEL. Now distros such as Alma, Rocky, and EuroLinux may be affected because they are downstream from RHEL. But I can be wrong.
