    The podcast sourced this:

    Mullenweg has publicly challenged companies in the WordPress industry, including those in competition with his own company. He prefers to settle disputes in the court of public opinion and describes his approach as “brinksmanship”, noting that the potential cost of legal action could put Automattic in a “tough spot”.[24]

    The first sentence was changed to the following in the interim before I summon the will to attend the podcast again. Haven’t found what it meant originally yet.

    On several occasions, Mullenweg has publicly challenged competitors to WordPress and WordPress.com.
