@ube @eliseo01 @lain There is no forced behavior - everyone is free to use the software privately and never distribute it, or exercise freedom 0 and not run the software.

Permission is simply not granted to take people's freedom by distributing the software as proprietary software.

Companies can never be forced to distribute the source code - if a company is infringing the GPLv2, or GPLv3, one of the options to comply is to cease distribution of the software forever.
