- floatingatoll 7y agoMost proprietary software with EULAs does not contain a copyleft provision that forces itself upon other software. I find copyleft creepy and power-hungry, so my choice of word reflects how I perceive it.

- colejohnson66 7y agoThe use of the word “infection” is usually deliberate and an attempt to taint users view of GNU’s software licenses.
