This again shows that the paper work demanded by FSF and GNU project
protects both projects from potential legal liabilities in the
future. One should appreciate the peaceful use of free software as
distributed by GNU and FSF for that reason.
These specific examples do not show that in the least -- copyright
assignments would not have helped here. Even the FSF would have to
comply with a DMCA notice just as any other entity in the USA.
