If I understood what I have read in the past correctly and am remembering it
correctly, the FSF folks claim that in the US there is no contract involved,
there is just a pure license of copyright play. Also, iirc, this is important
to them as contracts are dealt with in state courts and injunctions would not
be available whereas copyright licensing is dealt with in federal courts and
injunctions are obtainable.
Open to correction and clarification by people in a postion to do so.
all the best,
