There's a great deal of mistaken assumption driving that, though.
I think that is true for a select few of both sides of the argument.

My favourites thus far are:
  • Blizz are claiming ownership of all addons.
  • failure to abide by them may result in measures up to and including taking formal legal action.
    = Blizzard are going to sue everyone in sight.
  • Lua was created by Blizzard.
  • This new policy means Bliz are communist and greedy at the same time.
  • Addons are some how a special case compared to other programs.
  • This is all an evil plot by Blizzard to be able to steal addon code and to disable addon functionality.
  • Being pro new policy makes you spineless.
  • Addons should be free because I don't want to pay for them.
  • Only good can come from for sale addons.
  • Blizzard blocking your addon from functioning affects your IP rights.
  • All addon authors are against the new policy.
I'm sure theres some more which I've failed to mention.
