I find your propensity for double standards amazing. These so called "enslaved users" made a choice to buy into the developers proprietary software. It's the same exact thing as developers buying into the GPL. So, if proprietary software is enslaving users, then the GPL is most definitely enslaving developers. You can argue semantics all day long....but you'd still be wrong. But anyway, I'm glad that next to nobody releases new software under GPL anymore and that the vast majority of developers prefer a license like MIT that doesn't enslave developers at all. Good luck to you!
