My favourite part of the GPLv2 is the torrent technicality[0]. I wonder if all those people seeding Linux distributions realise they're violating the license.

That says they only need to link to the sources somewhere in the torrent.

Are we reading the same thing? It says:

> The best way to make sure you are in compliance when distributing GPLv2 object code on BitTorrent would be to include all the corresponding source in the same torrent

Not a link to the source, the source code itself.
