I was reading this article: http://www.zdnetindia.com/news/software/stories/133137.html where they talk about how Linus is against the new GPL lisence. I was wondering why. Why not be for it. In the article he hints that it would lead to people losing their private keys. Can that really be true? I was wondering what the Debian users felt about the new GPL 3 and if they could explain why Linus is so against it.
