That is an additional issue but only concerns GPLv3. GPLv2 is restricted for the reasons I mentioned above.

- cma 13y agoIf you read his post, that isn't an additional issue, it's the issue he was talking about. If you read my post, you'll see GPLv2 isn't restricted for the reasons you mentioned because of existence and legal interpretation of the DMCA safe-harbor clause. Maybe you'd argue there would be a different legal interpretation for Apple. I doubt it. If a company contracted out some code and the contractor stole it from some other copyrighted project, do you really think a court would hold Apple liable, unless there was some pattern of encouraging infringement in the App Store?
