That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.  "That" being the implication that
using GPLed software is a bad idea.  I've read plenty of arguments about why
developers may not want to use the GPL, and not being a developer, I have no
opinion on the subject.  But if the software is free to use, or if I'm just
using it for personal use, I see no problem, regardless of the license.
