In one sense, this make sense.

Say you create a fork of some library or application, covered by the GPL=
.  =

You are forced to use the GPL to distribute it, or else, forced to not  =

distribute it. That's that kind of denial of intellectual rights people =
 =

complaining about the GPL typically means (I'm just guessing that was th=
e  =

same for him). Things are like you are not allowed to be the owner of yo=
ur  =

own work. That's why some people keep GPL far away from them (even a  =

single line of GPL inside a million lines application would expose the  =

case). Either they work on their own peace of work (even recreate what's=
  =

GPL, if necessary), or on someone else work, only if the license does no=
t  =

deny their property and freedom with their *own work*.
