This is a very naïve view of the legal process. Apple could, and would drag the process out and make it as costly/lengthy as possible. They can outlast any feasible plaintiff - especially in the FOSS world (what we're discussing here).
It matters not how just or righteous your case may be. It only matters how deep your pockets are.
Apple's are much deeper than FSF or any other organization that would bring a suit. It's that simple...

Doing so would violate their EULA/TOS and expose yourself to a suit as well. Fun times.
> Also, copyleft licenses rely on lawsuit, more than good faith
How many of those cases have actually seen a courtroom - and how many did the plaintiffs actually prevail?
