Seems like a strange attack against (eg) GPL. Stallman is completely odd, but GPL's aim has nothing to do with developers and everything to do with users: Let users know and control the software they're running on their computers. This is a real world issue, even if you don't think you need it. This does have varied ramifications for developers, but all designed to prevent a downstream removing rights for a user to access the code running. And that's great, irrespective of your or my views on the chap who instigated it all.
