@z428 @teleclimber @feral_yogi @aral @Gargron My point is not that the GPL (v1, 2, 3, ...) is the One True Solution to everything. It's that simply pusueing your goal, without considering possible threats and defences is hopelessly naive, and ultimately doomed.
The GPL V2.0 was published in 1991. It remains relevaant, if not perfectly effective, 27 years lateer. That's a hell of a lot of foresight.
And there are suggested updates, including AGPL and GPLv3 for the SaaS loophole.
