Where did you learn that?


I easily understand my right to read the code of the product am buying. I do not understand why this right extends to distribution? It's akin to piracy in a loose sense!

what is piracy? stealing of software? how can you steal software? can you steal air that you breathe? is software property? If i have a dosai and give you my dosai, now you have a dosai and i dont. If i have source code and give it to you, we both have source code. Frankly I fail to see what you are doing in this list without the faintest understanding - or attempt to understand the concept of FOSS or OSS. We have given you sufficient references which you cant be bothered reading. I suggest you at least look up wikipedia for the terms FOSS and OSS if you cant be bothered reading the original sources.
