GPL turds have been really quiet ever since this dropped.

GPL is just realizing that inventing the wheel is wasteful and that the code itself isn't the goal, solving problems with code is. If you borrow, you give back. Simple as.

Fun fact: Google has a ban on usage of any GPL code (especially the AGPL) for precisely this reason.

You would probably lose your job if you added any GPL code to a project at Google.

If what they're offering is a "simple component" then why is he using their code at all? Surely, he can develop his own "simple component" with his trillion dollars and large engineering staff? This is just an ultra-wealthy person crying that he might actually have to pay someone for their labor, rather than taking that labor, wrapping it in proprietary garbage, and making billions of dollars the person who did the work his proprietary garbage depends on will never see a cent of.

If he's really worried about GPL, he can just make his own "simple component".

>>109878951
The argument here is kind of nonsensical. If you erased Tanenbaum from history, and Minix never existed, there would still be management engines doing the exact same thing they do now, they'd just be running something else. The management engine doesn't exist because of permissive licensing. It exists because powerful and wealthy people wanted it to exist. A different license would have just resulted in either Tanenbaum being paid (unlikely), or a different system that does the exact same thing being developed (more likely). The problem is bigger than a license.

Oh, well, then I feel dumb for writing a paragraph about it. I guess it is just too easy to believe someone in the oligarchy or government that serves the oligarchy said something absurd or stupid. Most of the things they say are absurd and stupid, so the fake ones blend in with the real ones really well.

All companies violate or violated the GPL. Some are better at hiding it than others. And almost none get sued at all, let alone successfully.
the only people with some (but still not a lot) of power regarding enforcement are companies which retain full copyright and offer their GPL products under a different license, of which there aren't many. and even then, companies who buy those licenses do it mostly for the paid support and ticking bureaucracy boxes, not because they felt a forced hand.

has anyone ever been sued for wrongfully using open source software? lol

>Say it's free software
Correct, it is free of cost and you are free to modify the source. The only thing asked is that you share contributions made to the software. That is the only ask.
>Say its free labor
This was never said.
>Expects something in return
Yes your modifications so everyone can enjoy better software.
