This is true in theory, but in my experience, every big company asks for all the licenses of the software they use, and if it's GPL, that's a non-starter. Maybe I've only worked for the good ones.

Obviously there will be some that violate the license, as there is with any license. But the point is that you do have _some_ sort of legal recourse if they do, and also, you make your intent clear as an author: this is supposed to be Free forever.

If your anti-argument is "people will just ignore the license," then using a permissive license isn't an argument either. After all, people will just ignore it.
