Should you decide not to give someone something based on the fact that you either don't like them, or don't like what they'll do with the thing you give them.

That rather depends what you intend to give, doesn't it? :-)

Though the analogy is inapt, because the GPL *doesn't* prevent use of software for "things you don't like":

Sure it does -- it prevents the use of software for things that are closed source. Bob
