There is an argument that without the copyleft provisions of the GPL (sometimes described as a virus), free software would not be as popular and important as it is today.
- psychoslave 2y agoHumanity also was described as a virus, see for example The Matrix. Also capitalism, communism, socialism, any political system, religions, philosophies, cultures, and anything you might relate or hate at mental level. Even the idea that whatever we dislike that gains more than zero popularity should be compared to a virus, this meme spreads like a virus.
