Remove problematic text.

After rereading this text a few times, I realized that it doesn't
actually say anything of value. It looks pretty but is devoid of
meaning (or, less glibly, it doesn't express any concept not already
covered by other text in the tutorial), so I'm cutting it entirely.

Use of these terms allows GPLv3 to be interpreted authoritatively based
 
solely on local legal knowledge and the technical facts. Parties who may have
 
questions about compliance with GPLv3 under domestic copyright provisions
 
need only to ask two questions, one legal and the other factual:
 

	
 
    Do I need a license under local copyright law to carry out this activity?
 

	
 
    Does my activity enable any other party to make or receive a copy of the program?
 

	
 
If question 1 is answered by a local copyright lawyer in the negative, then
 
the activity involved is not propagation and is permitted by GPLv3 without
 
more. If the answers to both questions are positive, then the activity
 
involved is ``conveying'', and copyleft obligations apply.
