It looks like TiVo has even less to fear from the GPLv3

Posted on Tuesday, July 10, 2007 by MegaZone

I’ve previously explained why TiVo doesn’t really have to worry about the GPLv3, but it looks like they have even less cause for concern now. Linux Torvalds, the guiding light behind Linux, voiced some pretty strong opinions in a post to the linux-kernel mailing list, about the GPLv3 and the people at the Free Software Foundation who created it. So it seems very unlikely that the Linux kernel will be switching to the GPLv3 any time soon.
