They're kind of like the Apple of the roof rack world: threatening lawsuits with "patent infringements" on things such as curved corners and other super basic features that shouldn't be patentable.
I don't have any links or sources for this information, just what I've seen on this forum with regards to previous discussions on why people are highly against Gobi.
It sucks because, in my opinion, the Gobi rack is the only roof rack that doesn't look like utter, hideous trash on top of the 4Runner.
