Yes, please do:
    (l)  Other Defenses Not Affected.— The failure of a
    service provider’s conduct to qualify for limitation
    of liability under this section shall not bear
    adversely upon the consideration of a defense by the
    service provider that the service provider’s conduct
    is not infringing under this title or any other defense.

As I said, the question is whether the "actiontec gateway" URL
on the Verizon page causes an obligation to Verizon under the
GPL when a user downloads software through it.

Because you dislike the GPL, you would like the answer to that
question to be "yes", although in a convoluted form - you would
like to believe that no such obligation truly exists, but you
want GPL advocates to believe that it does - so that Verizon can
be said to be violating the GPL with impunity while the SFLC is
too timid to pursue them. But there is no evidence for this.
