       @torvalds Doesn't this mean that you don't get to exercise freedom 1: "The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1)."?  If you only can read the software but have no means of putting any changes into practice, then it doesn't seem unreasonable to complain about it from a software freedom perspective.  Or am I missing something in the discussion?

       @ghul I don't buy "If that had been the intent, the license would have said so. It didn’t.", it could also be an oversight at the time of publishing the GPLv2, due to not expecting hardware to exist with software that the user cannot modify.  The intention seems pretty clear from all other literature, and just the fact that the GPLv3 was written in response to the issue of such hardware appearing.It is a different thing to argue that users of the license didn't intend/care about this.

       @tusharhero @zekjur Do you perhaps mean https://github.com/jsadusk/tramp-hlo?  I though of that first when I saw the tramp-TLA name.
