I love one of the clauses of gplv3 where if a user does not follow the gpl you may deny them their ability to use it forever.
Would be funny to strike Nintendo with that. Or any other company that likes suing people work.
Have Nintendo ever used GPL software?
They use xmpp as their messaging system I think. Xmpp is open source, but I am not sure about the licence used.
XMPP is a protocol, the GPL covers software implementing these protocols. They could use their own proprietary XMPP client and server without any legal issues.
