OK that's cool, but you are wrong.
It's perfectly ok for Fris to sell or give away GPL licensed software because that's what the GPL intended. Once you release GPL code you are basically bound to honor the license. Which means anyone who complains about their software being resold after they release it under the GPL has no leg to stand on.

By releasing GPL software you EXPLICITLY say that it's ok for people to give away or resell your software REGARDLESS of whether it's commercial or not.

I think it's time you stopped posting here as you're transparently Anna and are just aggravating the harm to yourself by doing so.
