Well, first predatory pricing _as_ _defined_ would have to be shown.

One fallacy here is that "predatory pricing" requires "pricing" in the
first place, and the parties _participating_ in GPLed software
development are not free to set the "price for intellectual property":
this is fixed by the upstream license.  Adhering to license terms is
not prohibited and does not form a conspiracy, or all law-abiding
citizens would be in a conspiracy.
