It brings to mind paradox of tolerance, how knowledge includes the ability to abuse it and the morality of hammers and knives - it is fundamentally up to the user if they want to build a house, prepare a meal, remove a tumor, or murder and any attempt to limit it only sabotages the purpose. Blame would be misplaced - even the most zealous licensing wouldn't have made a bit of difference in the end. Linux itself was a free rederived fork of Unix. If Google had to rederive their own fork of Linux they could have easily done so with only a little more early expense and reputation damage. At the cost of another proprietary fork gaining influence and control over free software or even open source.
