And yes i hate drm too, but since stallman is a extremist that supports un-free licenses (unlike the BSD and MIT) i will not listen to his wannabe rants, and i will never forgive him to change the GCC license to GPL3 only.
If i care for something i remove the drm, if i cant, i will stop buying it.
GPL puts the user's freedom first. Every developer is mostly a user anyway, unless you're writing absolutely everything from scratch like they do in SerenityOS. So I like that stance very much. If you don't, nobody is forcing you to interact with GPLed software in any way.
I think that's much more noble and kind. But as long as it's free software, I'll still use it and be happy it is, regardless of the license. And tbh it'd be nice if the small, loud minority of BSD lovers, GPL despisers would shut up. They give the BSD crowd a terrible look.
BS, i use FreeBSD and no one ever forced me to use Windows, Linux on the Desktop does everything right?
>GPL puts the user's freedom first.
No it's free promotion for the FSF
>scratch like they do in SerenityOS
Yes and they chose a good license (BSD2)
They deserve the promotion, because they created useful software.
> BS, i use FreeBSD and no one ever forced me to use Windows
At some point, Windows was everywhere, you couldn't hide from it. Now, Linux provides a strong competition, forcing even Microsoft to include it into Windows. BSD, instead, served as free labor for Apple, who created a walled garden for users.
What exactly do you want to do with the code that GPL prevents you from?
