How is that beneficial to Autodesk? Autodesk doesn’t care if they use the free alternative because they were never going to buy the Autodesk product in the first place.

It’s beneficial to them in the long term, they are not a monopoly anymore.

Nope, if they’ve made a significant enough product, they’ll get legal action with regard to damages or loss of revenue. That’s not a good situation to be in.

By then they would have purchased the software, unless they are really dumb…
