GPL has preserved the freedom of countless numbers of developers, users and software and it has spawned businesses based on free and open source software and millions of high quality, reliable free and open software freely downloadable from the internet with low or no cost and with no DRMs and BDSM user agreements.

Let me repeat,
Look at the BSD license, if you place a modification that is GPL or proprietary on BSD licensed code, it becomes GPL or proprietary. GET THAT THROUGH YOUR HEAD.
There are formally BSD licensed code in the GNU tools but GNU licensed modifications have been added which make the entire code GPL (absolutely no BSD)
So basically you have shown here that you don't even understand the simple BSD licenses, which actually makes all your posts about licenses void of any relevant information, together with your conclusions from your irrelevant "information".
