The BSD license promotes goodwill.

The GPL license promotes and enforces viral control.  How hypocritical that the 
Linux community fights so hard against the "evils" of corporate greed, while it 
has no qualms about accepting their NDAs, binary blobs, and non-redistributable 
drivers.  It will bend over backwards for closed-source vendors, but won't 
extend the olive branch to Free Software brethren.
