Oh great. Time for the GPL troll. Hans is not saying anything of the sort. What he is saying is that he doesn't want anyone to profit from his code while not giving anything back.
Yer, and that's what the GPL provides for Hans. Hans is saying that if people and companies use the software then he wants some code and payback. It's one of the cornerstones of Linux's success.
It has nothing to do with closed or open code.
Since what he's talking about is all about code, then yes it is. I suggest you go back and re-read what he's said, because there is no other interpretation.
