redistributors

Those who reassign

Redistributors are people or entities that receive something and pass it along to others.

The term appears most often in commercial contexts—wholesalers who buy goods from manufacturers and sell to retailers are redistributors.

In politics, redistributors take from one group to give to another: Critics called the new tax policy a scheme by wealth redistributors.

Software licenses often restrict redistributors from modifying code.
