The FSF has a page called The Principles of Community-Oriented GPL Enforcement^1. In it they talk about the GPL. But they make it very clear that they don't want to go about suing people who violate the license, and they would like to educate people on why they are violating the license. The zealotry does not help anyone. > Legal action is a last resort. Compliance actions are primarily education and assistance processes to aid those who are not following the license. Most GPL violations occur by mistake, without ill will. Copyleft enforcement should assist these distributors to become helpful participants in the free software projects on which they rely. Occasionally, violations are intentional or the result of severe negligence, and there is no duty to be empathetic in those cases. Even then, a lawsuit is a last resort; mutually agreed terms that fix (or at least cease) further distribution and address damage already done are much better than a battle in court. TLDR: Legal action is a last resort. Most GPL violations occur by mistake, without ill will. 1.https://www.fsf.org/licensing/enforcement-principles https://www.fsf.org/licensing/enforcement-principles
