So if I (for instance) download a 'leaked' copy and edit the streamer functions under the GPL and the script I could then claim it's a derivative work? It's a minefield to navigate to be honest, GPL licenses are typically not draconian as far as copyright goes though, hence the name.
Surely if they are using the streamer plugin, they have to credit the creator of that with the copyright and the GPL license? I've not seen the copyright or credits of an NGRP leak, but most of the scripts use streamers or plugins, wouldn't that make them GPL also simply by using those plugins?
Or putting it another way, let's suppose I code an amazing script then I use the streamer plugin and charge $150 for people to download it and use it, wouldn't I be breaching the terms of the GPL by charging for access?
