GPL is Broken

Invent your own language. Import GPL code into it. Publish resulting source code, but avoid publishing the compiler or language specification.

Now technically code is open source, but nobody, beside you, can ready it or compile it.

I think GPL is an instance of halting problem and Stallman is a retard.

the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
It is distributed, but you have to license it for say $10,000,000. It says nothing about it being free.

It's acceptable to work on the project in FakeLang 0.9, but if you can write it somebody else can read it and translate it back to C.
He can't read/translate it, unless there is a documentation on it.

And even if he can, that would be an investment so huge, that it is easier to rewrite it from scratch.
