And it won't be. But cut their public relations staff some slack. They can't tell Richard Stallman from Gregory Rasputin, and before saying or doing anything they're going to be bringing themselves up to speed on what the GPL is. No need to get rage-y just yet.

It's their obligation to forward what they don't understand. If I work for a mobile network carrier and say something that indicates we don't follow some privacy law, it's my fault for not asking my boss how we handle certain things. (And my boss might ask his/hers, etc.)

Edit: I didn't downvote you, by the way.

All true. But until word comes down from legal about what to say, you can't blame the PR flacks for saying nothing.
