Providing or not providing attribution is not copying you moron, it's
providing or not providing attribution. Take your meds, Hyman.

The license grants permission to copy and distribute provided
certain conditions are met while doing so. Copying and distributing
while not meeting those conditions is copyright infringement. Those
conditions can be anything - attribution, paperback format, blue
covers. If the copier does not want to meet the conditions, he has
no right to copy.
