I offer you a different perspective:

GPL (ie. Copyleft) guarantees "open source" for _users_ of the software

Apache (ie. permissive) gives source code to _developers_.

Apache gives the source code to everyone, and a choice to the receiver.

One may be surprised by having faith in peoples goodwill. =)
