It doesn't help that Microsoft calls GPL a virus and uses FUD campaigns. :/

Could just be unfamiliarity with the issue. A magazine publisher once
asked me for advice about the GPL; I told him that as long as he
distributed the lincese verbatim with the work, and as long as he
included the source code with the software or provided it on request,
he should be fine. Once he got that, the GPL seemed a lot less scary
to him.
