@LovesTha @bonifartius @brion you’re free to enter a contract, but said contract is basically a long list of things you can’t do. the act of entering a contract is a restriction of freedom.
@thor i think 99% of the criticism regarding GPL is FUD tbh. if there was anything really problematic or hidden with those licenses we'd know already. they've been around for a long long time now.
it's just a list of things that ensure you don't get to be the only one who profits from a free software. the "free" in free software is regarding the software after all, ensuring it stays free.
