. . . until the author's policy/stance changes. Then you might want to seek legal aid or quit using the licensed work. It's also important to take the (stated) intent of the work's author into consideration, because that person could still conceivably choose to sue you based on the letter of the license, rather than the FSF's stated intent for the license.
