Comment Re:GPL Violation? (Score 1) 232

Apple retired a GPLv2 application from the app store at, because the FSF was asking Apple to comply with the GPLv2:

http://www.fsf.org/news/2010-05-app-store-compliance

So I guess that this means that both Apple and the FSF Foundation agree that the app store terms are not compatible with GPLv2. As detailed in

http://www.fsf.org/news/blogs/licensing/more-about-the-app-store-gpl-enforcement

the key point seems to be that GPL explicitly says:

"You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.",

and the app store agreements impose further restrictions.
