- lucian1900 14y agoIt's often the other way around, the GPL disallows distributing the software under the very restrictive terms of those app stores.
- new299 14y agoSure, but it would be entirely possible for Appstores to make their terms less restrictive, I don't blame people for using licenses like the GPL which are designed to push people in that direction.
- lucian1900 14y agoI don't think it's very likely app stores will change their terms in the direction of complying with the GPL. I don't blame people using the GPL either (except possibly people that use it for libraries), nor people that publish apps on the various stores, I was just clarifying a point.
- dllthomas 14y agoOr even less restrictive specifically for GPL apps...
- betterunix 14y agoThat is basically the point of the GPL: to fight proprietary software ecosystems.
