Also, when uou change the code in OSS to suit your needs, are you supposed to give that improved version back to the community in agreement with the GPL license use?

no. you dont if you dont want to.

If I agree to this, I think OSS would be nowhere.

This means OSS is also practising propreitary methods. Why is this such a grey area?

its not a gray area, its perfectly legal to modify the source, use it for your own purposes and never release the source to the community.

yes, many have contributed code back to the community because it makes sense to them (crowd sourced labor, secondary support etc.. )
