The GPL aims to protect against is someone taking a useful piece of software, and then enhancing it but keeping the enhancements private. In other words, if you're going to benefit from the work of others, then it's only fair that you contribute back.
That doesn't sound particularly restrictive to me.
Fair and restrictive are not mutually exclusive. The GPL is undeniably more restrictive than (for example) the Mozilla Public License or the simpler BSD license.
