Re: Android's openness both a blessing and curse

Nobody is going to use a limited license that doesn't allow you to make money or forces you to pay someone else, period.
Tell that to all of the product developers/manufactures utilizing Linux and supporting the GPL. You can utilize software limited by a license and still make money. Flash back 10ish years when MS wasn't worried about open source-based products.

The GPL is actually one of the more restrictive licenses, when compared to the LGPL v3, ASL and others.
