   Exactly not the case. Torvalds said times and again that there's no
   any special exceptions whatsoever, retard ams.

That is why Linux allows not only non-free modules to being linked,
but also non-free binaries to being added...  What Linus says has not
much to do with it, much like what you say has nothing to do with
reality.
