We can compete against them by writing our own articles. Here's an article I wrote recently: http://kerneltrap.org/node/7238

I do not intend to play down the benefits of your work, but the trouble with periodicals like `Forbes' is that what appears in them are treated as the gospel truth by some. Unfortunately that `some' happen to be the decision makers of several large businesses, and sovereign policy makers.

We can also counter them by participating in community discussions where people have doubts or misunderstandings about GPLv3.

Oh. Sure, yes. Given our resource constraints, grassroots is the only place where we can be effective.
