Are Plugins Free on Wordpress?

WordPress has thousands of plugins, some of which are free and some you have to pay for, but they're all free as in speech. If you download or buy a plugin, you're free to modify, adapt, and sell the code just as you are with WordPress core as long as you release them under the GPL license.
