I do not completely agree with RMS. The first thing is that there is no reason to mingle philosophy and morality with software business. Most of the people in the business don't understand and don't care. I don't care, too. I think that many people are opposed to GPL, and other similar things, like Open Source, GNU, etc. because of the RMS preaching. Many people do not like someone preaching to them, and if they sometimes do, then they go to church.
I don't think that RMS should tell me what is wrong and what is right. There are many projects that do benefit from GPL, GPL is usefull when applied properly, it has sense, and let's stop at that point.
