I would LOVE to see that.  I find so many products using Linux-based
firmware and there is no way to get the code, let alone build and flash
a modified firmware.

In the US, there are a few organisations who do this but they don't
have the resources to tackle them all, perhaps because they often can't
claim costs even if they win a case.

In Australia the losing party would have to cover costs, so an
organisation sitting under the Linux Australia umbrella could in theory
be cost neutral if they chose their cases wisely.

Cheers,
Adam.
