@RL_Dane In order to steal something the one from who is stolen need to no longer have it. Copying isn't stealing. The whole reason the GPL exists it an attempt to confirm the users' natural right to what they use whilsts big government backed "copyright" still exist. Even rms himself has indicated that we hope to one day destroy all licensing once we have enough Free Software.

Now if you have believe workers and bosses at Microsoft are making changes to GPL'd code and not making those changes available in anyway, or delivering products or services that contain GPL'd code and not informing users of their rights, thats a discussion worth having, but labeling it as stealing is, at the very least, disingenuous.
