Seems like your attention span has blanked out again. So here is the
complete quote again:
The GPL does not hinder anybody to "sell his property". It just
keeps him from licensing the property of others under terms and in
contexts that they don't approve.
If you don't want that, don't use the GPLed software. Respect the
property of people that choose to license it under the GPL.
The GPL does not demand _anything_ as long as you are not using
_others'_ property licensed under the GPL. And then _their_ property
rights chip in, and they are perfectly allowed to give you license
under _their_ conditions. Which in that case is the GPL.
Do you get it now, or was this too long for you too grasp again?
