An alternative may be to report them to the FSFE's Freedom Task Force. They work together with gpl-violations.org to try and get these violations corrected. http://www.fsfeurope.org/projects/ftf/ftf.en.html http://www.fsfeurope.org/projects/ftf/enforcement.en.html Greg Kroah's probably put enough information up on his page to report them.
