I mean... I get what you're saying, but most of the things you listed as victories over corporate money happened 100 years ago. That says something about the current struggle.

So should we give up because things are currently not going our way?

Not at all. I was merely arguing against the assertion that GPLv3 was a mistake and that things would be different if GNU left it at GPLv2.

I'm an idealist. I do lots of things that are inconvenient and feel like a losing battle.
