> Our licences aren't working anymore

Lol, ok, maybe they are not working for you and some non- negligible amount of people, but this should not be generalized neither as "our" licences nor as "not working anymore". There are plenty of software I use for which GPLv3 works like a charm. E.g I loved how Apple ditched bash as the default shell because of GPL.[1]

Isn't that an instance of the license not working?

no, it's an instance of the license doing exactly what it says it does.

It is working great, Apple doesn't want to provide freedom to their users so they don't get to leech off of GPL software.
