The GPL is a purported third party donee beneficiary contract: b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
Notice that "licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties" does not mean that there is any obligation to deliver anything to them. It only means that third parties have license to the software such that they are permitted to do anything they want with it as long as they too follow the GPL.
