- mistrial9 4y agoAmerican companies funded by leveraged debt are specifically, exactly paying that money in large amounts to remove any GPL'ish things in their stack. Some other hardware companies are simply failing to comply by the license - catch me if you can, I guess. If so much money is available as "someone else's money" and there is some vague notion that ownership complete is the mission of profit-seeking .. then why not? but what does that do to the value of the work, and the value of the ecosystem, built as GPL? GCC is an engineering marvel, and the basis of two generations of engineering by hundreds of people and companies. Rust joining one of the many languages supported by GCC and stack, is welcome here.
