I thought everyone here was a young doctor AND a young lawyer? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] The young lawyering in this thread is sad.

But seriously, these licenses are not some crazy disputed legal question: they are very well established in the software world. At work I've had to conduct audits of the packages we use, checking every license to make sure our company was in compliance ... and this was at a small startup! And as an aside, no company I've worked for has ever used GPL3 software, precisely because of this requirement.

The fact that it's not a corporation violating the law is the only unique thing here.
