From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is exactly why I have never touched Ubuntu and avoid anything to do with Canonical as much as possible.
That's interesting. I'm aware of all of these occasions and more but my take on the whole is the opposite. 😃
So illegally claiming copyright on GPL'ed binaries is good? OK, that's certainly one odd opinion to have...
