I am talking of how "copyleft" came to be. See the motivation at eg. https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-free.en.html https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-free.e

  It is interesting that a philosophy opposed to ownership and restriction of control has pretty much the most controlling terms of any OSS license - to the extent it is usually banned in any commercial software development. I do understand the copy left rationale - to ensure the freedom to modify and for the community to benefit from those modifications, it is necessary to use the machinery of control!
