Forcing your users to have to GPL any of their code based on your code is controlling them more than releasing under a more sane permissive license. It's ironic that GPL is the true restriction of freedom for all the virtues it touts.
- saagarjha 7y agoThe GPL is quite clear in the responsibilities you have: protecting freedom requires taking away the right to be able to curtail it.

- garmaine 7y agoFreedom to appropriate and oppress is a weird way of using the word “freedom.”
