Not true. The whole point of the BSD is that a
business can take your code, make a product, and
release that product with whatever (sub)license they
want. This happens all of the time, and is the major
"boon" of the BSD.
This also means that BSD code could (theoretically)
become extinct in the "free" word; e.g., if all
versions of the code could be snapped up by
proprietary vendors, and all public mirrors
disappeared. This is one of the reasons people
choose GPL over BSD -- they want to ensure that the
source stays open and (additionally) that changes get
fed back to the community if the binaries are
distributed.

Note GPL clauses 6 and 7:
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work
based on the Program), the recipient automatically
receives a license from the original licensor to copy,
distribute or modify the Program subject to these
terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights
granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing
compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or
allegation of patent infringement or for any other
reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are
imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this
License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of
this License. If you cannot distribute so as to
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
consequence you may not distribute the Program at all.
Note that the only case where both the obligations of
the GPL and BSD licenses can be met is if the BSD
source files have the BSD header (as required) AND an
overriding GPL notice (which is not disallowed by the
BSD license). In this manner, both licenses are
conformed to, and the only serious potential for
conflict is the "advertisement clause" (having to
put explicit things in the documentation). Because the
source code of the file must be made available
(according to the GPL) the second clause of the BSD
license is fulfilled, since the notice is part of
the "materials provided with the distribution" (even
if not immediately).
So yes, your BSD source code can be sub-licensed by
pretty much everybody, and it can also be "converted"
to GPL (i.e. it's "GPL-compatible').

CHAPTER VII. THE FOUR CLASSES OF SOCIETY. THE FOUR CLASSES OF SOCIETY. "After the herald had given the names of the wrestlers who were to make the first round, the fellows came in. They were dressed without any clothes to speak of, or rather they were quite undressed, with the exception of a cloth around their loins. They came in on opposite sides of the ring, and stood there about five feet apart, each man resting his hands on his knees, and glaring at the other like a wild beast. They[Pg 231] looked more like a pair of tigers than human beings, and for a moment I thought it was not at all unlike what a bull-fight in Spain might be. I turned upon her choking with anger, but her melting beauty rendered me helpless. Black woods were on our left. "Shall we turn in here?" I asked. "None of that with me," he growled. "Do you know who I am, Countess Lalage? I am Leon Lagage, Count of the Holy Roman Empire, and your husband. Incomparable woman, you cannot alter that fact. For better or worse, for richer or poorer, till death do us part!" I have in this way imperfectly indicated a methodical plan of generating a design, as far as words alone will serve, beginning with certain premises based upon a particular work to be performed, and then proceeding to consider in consecutive order the general character of the machine, mode of operation, movements and adjustments, general arrangement, strains, special arrangement, and proportions. ‘Alas! what is life, what is death, what are we, 11th January two best dresses.

The next morning he was up betimes, and cooked the boys as good a breakfast as he could out of the remainder of his store and what he could get from the hospital, and then gave what was left to whoever came. The comfortable crib, which had cost the Deacon so much labor, had been pre-empted by the Surgeon for some of his weakest patients. "You two step forward one pace," he commanded. "Gentleman, I've got my six. The rest are yours." "Where are you goin'?" he said sternly. Every now and then the crowd would break into the latest rhymings of MacKinnon's poet: A large thicket, at this moment, gave the dusty foot an opportunity of doubling, and, for an instant, diverging from the straightforward course, though it availed him little, he seemed to feel the breath of his pursuer on the back of his neck; his foot sounded as if at his heels; he drew his garment closely around him, turned suddenly to the right, and, bounding from the ground, the next instant a splash was heard in the little river, and the fugitive was safe from his pursuer.
