A very apt analogy that's funny in that the happy birthday song has its own history of copyright battles.
- samwillis 3y agoExactly why I chose it!
- pms 3y agoAre you suggesting that GPL licenses should be invalidated and everyone should be able to use GPL code broadly, because it's free anyway? Is this some kind of modern reversed version of Robin Hood: steal from the poor and give to the rich? Is this what you're standing for?
- pms 3y agoFunny, except the comparison makes no sense. Is the happy birthday song licensed, does it have commercial competition?
