Neither do I, I find it quite informative that after almost 30 years of
the gpl's existence, that seagate is still violating it, obviously
intentionally. And its quite likely to be ignored until a suit has been
filed that requires their legal people to actually read that document to
see what the hell all the hulabaloo is all about. Without any known
exceptions that I am aware of, they will rectify that, before the courts
set the deck very low to mow their legal grass. The FSF may need our
financial support in that event. Seagate has deep pockets.
