Yes, I have to agree. GitHub seems to allow forking for all public projects, independently which license the project actually is using. I think the idea of forking was initially to allow others people to contribute, not just to copy. <https://github.com/isaacs/github/issues/1280> Today the kids copy all forms of digital contents, without respecting the work of the original authors in any way. Of course the benefit is, that information is freely available for all people, which is very positive.
