Do I understand the implication of the license correctly (forgive my ignorance here). If I analyze a client's data using an R script I created then I can charge the client a $20,000 consulting fee, but, if I let the client push the button to execute the R script and charge him 10 cents for the privilege then I can be sued for violating the GPL? Or are my assumptions on the first part also incorrect and R can only be used for the free betterment of mankind?
