I think it's valid to not want to use software if you think that using it will contribute to a philosophy that you don't like. And it is true that many people choose GPL because they didn't bother to do any research and think it's just a safe default, but enough people do choose it because they believe that proprietary software is evil or morally wrong in some way.
