Freedom which does not defend itself *will* be abused again and again,
and after 15 years of software engineering, I said "it's over". You
care and want to be able to legally do something, GPL. You do not care
and don't want to legally be able to do something, BSD like/MIT
(Anselm choice). It's a matter of personal choice. Mine is GPL.
Usually students or people with a golden professional experience do
not understand "why the GPL". After being screwed several times,
coders usually do.
The only piece of freedom which is removed from the GPL is the piece
of freedom which allows to remove its freedom... For a consistent GPL
whole, you cannot close the code.
I'll stop here, since it's a dangerous path for this mailing list.
A more appropriate subject would be "how to fight against bloat in the
software stack?", don't you think?
