Which business model are they going for - screwing over their former employees? Or selling access to something that doesn't belong to them? Or are they going to try to combine them both this time?

The former pebble employees at Google worked hard to get the OS open source, so I think it's fair to assume they were hoping for this outcome. And the repebble team (who are the ones"bringing it back") have been working on providing support and keeping the original pebble watches going for years now.
