Looks like the Ghostrunner developers also have an issue with paid mods running off their IP.

You should be able to separate the general idea and whether we're talking just law or morals here. Sure, copyright law gives ridiculously broad control to the copyright holder. They can just outright go after mods in general and disallow them free or not too. I guess if your position is that modding should just not be allowed in general then that's at least consistent. Personally I think regardless of law things like reverse engineering and mods should exist at least in some form though.
