> But the goal behind FSF GPL is to ensure both author attribution and more importantly that the source code is always available to the user.

if I close some MIT-licensed code, and make changes, how exactly is that denying attribution or taking code away from anyone?

the code I started with is there for anyone else, untouched by me or my closed variant. if the license requires attribution, I will attribute, no problem. how does anything one person does privately with open code change anything about that code elsewhere? exactly how, please?
