i would like to know if apple has violated the GNU General Public
License with the iphone. it seems that the browser is GNU General
Public License and was not distributed on http/ftp/cvs/svn/fd/cd/dvd
the source code.
at the same time apple has not any respect for GNU General Public
License Free Software and seems that search other ways to use the free
softwares, without respect the GNU General Public License
apple think that can do the same thing with FreeBSD License, but
FreeBSD License is compatible with the GNU General Public License
apple must have respect for developers and software
bye bye
