We've had similar situations in India, especially with the OOXML and patent issue gaining a backdoor entry. In India the FSF-India is usually lobbying for Libre software causes along with other like-minded non-profit organisations. So try to get the FSF-Hungary (if you have one in your country) to protest instead of involving the ubuntu LoCo community. It would be easier to get FSF affiliated if a dedicated team of people are behind it. You would need to check local laws/procedures for registering an NP.
