Federal judge slaps down Automattic, granting temporary injunction to WP Engine in ongoing WordPress squabble
Briefly

The judge has mandated that Automattic must cease all forms of blocking or interference with WP Engine's access to wordpress.org, thereby restoring previous privileges.
As part of the ruling, WP Engine's access to its Advanced Custom Fields plugin directory must be returned, ensuring uninterrupted control over its development and distribution.
Automattic is ordered to restore resources to WP Engine, including security and support functionalities, which were stripped prior to the court's intervention.
The court has emphasized that any technological hindrance to WP Engine's operations, such as IP blocking, is unacceptable and must be revoked.
