Not to be a GNU/Linux instigator but I remember when I first read the GPL how strange it was to have a legal document to give something away it seemed like a impish prank - will someone take it and insist you stop giving it away, or sue you when their production line breaks down.. And then the flamewars began, the pronunciation, the toolchain, freetards, 'open sores', etc. but it was the GPL making it all possible.
