Yeah, when I first heard about the GPL way back when I primarily used
Linux I thought it was the coolest idea on the planet. After
switching to OpenBSD for other reasons I finally realized that it was
the most selfish idea on the planet. And that's not even getting into
the hypocrisy of selling out to closed companies, those same evil
companies that the GPL claims to be trying to protect us from.
