It doesn't just do that, any successful third party published title(750k) automatically has to pay hasbro 25% of the gross, you can't sue them, and they can publish any content you come up with without compensation. True jewry. This is going to kill derivative content such as pathfinder
Oh, and they reserve the right to alter the license or completely revoke it without notifying the end user.
True jewry.
“Hand rubbing intensifies”
People were freaking put at first, but the general consensus online is that hasbro couldn't retroactively apply this to content developed previously. Pathfinder has unofficially stated that their latest edition doesn't use any D&D content.
This is just going to discourage anyone from building D&D content, or even hosting things like free references, virtual tabletops, podcasts, etc. And because Wizards of the Coast can only put out garbage content, this'll just accelerate the slow death of D&D.

This is the way forward. Believe it, or not, the was a time when D&D didn't exist. Then it was thought up. So just walk away from them and think up new shit. Ignore them. Sideline them. Stop feeding them. Walk away and leave them sitting alone in their poison little pond, with nothing new to sell.
Let it wither and die and grow something fresh and new in it's place.
