Someone is trying to sell a copy of Gimp - Videogmaer555 - 05-31-2023
Even though it's supposed to be free, I found this on Amazon.com

I forget the exact details but providing the Gnu license GPL https://www.gimp.org/about/COPYING is not infringed that is permissible. What is being sold is the physical DVD + any extras included on the DVD + cost of delivery.
Looking at their blurb, take their claims with a pinch of salt. For anybody coming across this post, the place to get Gimp is
http://www.gimp.org where you will get the latest version straight from the developers and it is free. (and free from possible malware)

There's no need to look for horns on a horse's head...
If there is an official, safe and free distributor, why take a chance on other sites?
