Come someone smart tell me if this violates GPL?

No.

It's GPL compliant, so there's no problem. It's a good thing for companies to explore a variety of business models that are FLOSS-compatible.

Wonder how this affects direct RHEL copies such as Rocky or Alma.
I was at Red Hat when they moved CentOS to Stream and a lot of us were VERY unhappy about it. Kind of knew the writing was on the wall for them when Red Hat hugged them closer.
I don't get this move, other than to fight direct copies of RHEL, such as Rocky or even Oracle. This might push those folks to have to follow CentOS stream, which is NOT RHEL.
Though I don't know how the copies do their builds now.
