Sabotage? Brett, you might be getting a bit carried away here.
No, I'm not. Richard Stallman himself has stated that the purpose of the GPL's "poison pill" is to turn developers against their colleagues and the organizations for which they work. His writings even urge programmers to put GPLed code into the work they do for their employers for the express purpose of forcing them to give away the code!

Post some *exact* references (not quotes) to papers or transcriptions which support each of your points or I do not see how anyone on this list can continue to take you seriously.
