1. You have some kind of understanding with the copyright holder of
the program in question.
2. You have not been prosecuted != you have not broken the law.
I think his point is this: Person A can legally make and distribute a lot of
copies to B without putting B under any obligation, as long as B doesn't
make more copies himself. B, who now has a lot of copies, can dispose of them
as he wishes by first sale, without having to obey the GPL.
