Interesting. I was working on something quite similar when I was in PayPal. Here is a prototype: https://github.com/anupamsr/ut-test
Then the powers that be came and took all the credit. Since then I haven't touched it.

But if you think there is some other license that better expresses my... sentiment... you are welcome :)
(I know, it sounds kiddish. It was a long time ago and I felt really burned because PayPal management, from lower to top, is seriously fscked ethically. It took me more than a year to get interested in creating something new.)
As such, if you license your code under the GPL anybody at paypal can use and modify it under the terms of the GPL, as per the terms of the license.
What you can do is have a dual license "as long as the combination of restrictions on the work as a whole does not put any additional restrictions beyond what GPL allows"[1].
That being said, I'm not a lawyer, so I might have misinterpreted the wording of the license.

Safest would be everyone except PayPal.
