    I actually don’t have to do that at all. It’d be one thing if i, or anyone else in this thread, were saying that the problem with derivative works is that they aren’t originals, but that’s not the point at all.
    This isn’t about venerating copyright in the abstract, it’s about infrastructure and longgevity.
    If you’re not just shit posting and actually want to understand the issues at stake, it just so happens that i wrote bout this yesterday:

      I like GPL more too, but what are we supposed to do?

      Open source is open, we have no way of preventing them from using MIT.

        It is more of like understand, beware, and avoid going in that direction. They are legally allowed to do it, but its still bad…
