I wrote my own software with my time and my laptop in my apartment. Therefore, my property and mine to do with as I please. I chose to release it under the GPL. Others, having seen my software and seeing some value in it, have paid me to work for them. Is this not capitalism?

Giving away content, even content in such an innocuous form as ideas, is in fact a form of intellectual anarchism and as such is a terrorist act aimed at bringing our civilization to its knees. This is the truth, and in order that this important truth can be communicated to the masses please feel free to distribute this paragraph in whatever media you have at your disposal.
