From the Lasercomb decision,
<http://digital-law-online.info/lpdi1.0/cases/15PQ2D1846.htm
The question is not whether the copyright is being
used in a manner violative of antitrust law (such as whether the
licensing agreement is “reasonable”), but whether the copyright is being
used in a manner violative of the public policy embodied in the grant of
a copyright."
Still having trouble reading?
"Of yet greater concern, these creative abilities are withdrawn
from the public"
The courts find copyright misuse when the copyright holders attempt to
use their rights improperly to restrain competition
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/manifesto.html
"GNU will remove operating system software from the realm of competition.
Restraint of competition is universally held to be an attempt
to prevent others from generating competing products. Forcing
public availability is the opposite of that, as your fellow
crank Daniel Wallace discovered:

Although the antitrust laws forbid conspiracies "in restraint of
trade," 15 U.S.C. §1, §26, the GPL does not restrain trade. It is a
cooperative agreement that facilitates production of new derivative
works, and agreements that yield new products that would not arise
through unilateral action are lawful.
