      That argument is about whether any customer of a product can sue over a failure to follow a licence, whether the FSF can sue as a customer of Vizio’s or whether they have to be representing a rights holder for one of the licences that are being breached

      It’s unusual for a third party to be able to sue, so it could go either way
