On that other question you raise, here is the FSF's position: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#ClickThrough
Yeah, I'm not bothered by the actual clicking of "I accept the GPL", it's more the misunderstanding of it that the existence of the click-through represents. If someone's licencing their code I would hope they'd spend a bit of time researching how the license they're using actually works.
