Its quite simple, really. If you use stolen third party code, 
the gnunet project and its developers will

a) not link to your application
b) not help you on its development
c) claim to have nothing to do with you, if ever asked.

In addition, your radical methods may make developers
hostile towards you. This is not a bunch of l33t h3x0rs.

The bottom line is that GUI coding (especially java)
is so straightforward and well-understood that you should 
be able to do it without doing anything illegal
or disrespected.
