I detect a note of condescension in your comment, but I actually agree unironically: It is interesting to see people's reactions to copyright with different approaches and different situations. I think copyright is a useful tool, but I'm unhappy with the current infrastructure we have around it, so unusual cases like this help offer some perspective.


You're wrong. It's more a sense of amusement than anything else. I don't have a dog in this fight. I'm neither a GPL fan, nor a supporter of Copyright law as-is.


My apologies, then. I read it as the common Internet usage of "always interesting" where it means "I think this is completely stupid."


Well its certainly not stupid, I just thought that people have their own biases towards copyright law when it comes to GPL violations vs pirating Music/Movies/etc.
