And what copy conditions are not followed in the copies that I've
made?
Promises regarding distribution are totally baside the point. We
are talking about *unilateral* grant, not a contract:

The GPL, however, is a true copyright license: a unilateral
permission, in which no obligations are reciprocally required by
the licensor.

Distribution is done under 17 USC 109, not GPL.
