so..where are all the free speech advocates when someone willfully violates the GPL?

  Lacking the privilege to obscure, hide or restrict access to information is not a violation of free speech. Similarly "I'm not allowed to shut people up!" doesn't mean you are persecuted.

    yeah, well pirating software, music, and movies isn't free speech either.

      Yeah, but having a website IS. If someone is suspected of a crime, they should be formally accused and put on trial (aka "due process") before stripping them of their rights and property. Wild concept, I know.
