"Cadged" means: to trick someone out of something they deserved.

 "mooch" and "sponge" are the most appropriate synonyms for what they did.

GNU code contains not a speck of UNIX code. They rewrote it from scratch.

Where did you "steal" "Cadged" from ? do they want it back ?!
Are they annoyed by your constant "mooching" ?!

Ideas are not like candy, you can't "steal" them from a crying baby.

 [ GuhNoo stole the names & functionality of existing Unix features.
Then they trademarked, "GNU is Not Unix". ]

"Stole" ? really ?! as if Andrew Tanenbaum ( of "open" source MINIX fame ),
looked in his vault, 1987, Amsterdam, & proclaimed:
" Dammit Linus ! give it back. ".
