### Description

As reported by @armijnhemel the FSF has silently published new versions of the GPL 2.0, and likely other licenses, including backporting these modifications to old versions of the licenses :smiling_imp: because why would you need to respect the version number of legal document that demands to be reproduced verbatim?

The address is gone, so is Ty Coon:

And there are likely many other licenses also affected.
