WoW gamers are also copying the game in order to play and even though
the imbecile court ruled that such copying doesn't fall under 17 USC 117
(because the games are not owners of their WoW copies), it still held
that breach of a "condition" not to use bots doesn't violate the
copyright act. Why do you think that a copyleft "condition" not to
restrict users downstream should be treated any differently?

The copyleft enforcement theory based on copyright-not-a-contract
silliness is authoritatively dead under MDY precedent.

Got it now, silly?
