No. But if you sell and distribute your own commercial IDE based on emacs and don't release your changes to their source, you are a "free rider".
Emacs devs even have a clever license to prevent just that. You do agree that there's value in their licensing scheme, right? I mean, it would be weird if you were comfortable casually using the software in a metaphor against "right to work" laws but were dead set against their license choice.
