" stamp that would be removed when the box goes on sale .."
terrible idea, couldn't disagree more. Deemed guilty before product even out or given a reasonable amount of time to comply.
Wouldn't it be more positive to have a stamp to show those that do comply, would also make it standout more.
And a suggestion for new rows indicating a companies active Kodi forum participant or quite important, freq of firmware updates, would be quite useful ?

Minix itself is compliant with the GPL, for all I know, and they're not pre-installing the vidon apk.
If anything, they are well aware of the bad press not being compliant leads to, those days (the Vidon boxes are a perfect example).
Now, they are still a commercial company, and the vidon apk has features the stock Kodi doesn't, the most important being proper 3d iso support which is vidon's own code (being basically the same company as DVDFab), so they want to satisfy their customers, first.
Bashing Minix because there are talks about Vidon on their forum, or even because they link to it to satisfy their customers seems a bit extreme to me...
Knowing the guys for long, I'm probably not fully objective, and the situation doesn't please me either, but let's stay reasonable regarding "indirect" infringements...
