out in the slashdot crowd, there is a trend to say anything neccessary to get what they want, including explaining away actual law and ethics. how do they get to the point of saying such things? it is a gimme gimme gimme culture. the letters written in the GPL and the BSD and the laws that underpin those licenses mean nothing in the face of gimme gimme gimme. if the GPL had words which would take away from them, they would attempt to explain those words away. noone is slandering those users. they're calling them what they are -- greedy and self-serving and wrong.
