Exactly.  Not even to the upstream distributor.  That's where Linus'
theory of tit-for-tat falls apart.

Nope.

case 1: Upstream provides source, tivo modifies and distributes it (to their customers).

case 2: tivo provides source, end user modifies and distributes it (possibly to their customers, maybe to friends, possibly even to upstream).

See?  Tit for tat.
