Copyright includes "first sale" limitation. In the EU it's called
"copyright exhaustion."

Each copy of my copy is my copy. Each is lawfully made thanks
to the GPL. "Adobe asserts that its license defines the
relationship between Adobe and any third-party such that a
breach of the license constitutes copyright infringement. This
assertion is not accurate because copyright law in fact provides
certain rights to owners of a particular copy. This grant of
rights is independent from any purported grant of rights from
Adobe."

That may be the law in the GNU Republic. Elsewhere it doesn't
really work that way.
