Not really. GPLv2 had more sensible legal language, even if that turned out to burn FSF intentions at times, but over time lawyers started digging in more into "derivative software" clause. Also a lot of the naysayers were fueled by RMS himself doing whack a mole by forcing projects to adopt GPL in not nice manner (and I'm not talking about them using something big or critical from GPL project). TL;DR FSF is heavily responsible for the "GPL is viral" message sticking. |
