I assure you, the GPL is endemic in all those areas as well, usually completely legally. FSF chose to not allow usage restrictions for good reason.
You disagree with me. That is fine. Reasonable, well informed people disagree with each other all the time. I understand and sympathize with your standpoint even if I don't agree with the conclusion.
@jannem @ThePlant the GPL cannot be compared to Activitypub because if you are using GPL code you are forced to release any modification with the same freedom, while Activitypub doesn't oblige companies using it to disclose malicious proprietary code for harvesting metadata, filtering contents and monetizing hate speech.
My conclusion is that we should not support companies that made the world a worse place, but you are free to come to the opposite conclusion, we're in the Fediverse after all 🙂
