Sure---that's sharing with your friends and neighbors, and that's a fundamental freedom.

But many/most will follow the project directly. You can offer the source code to build yourself , or provide a convenient binary/installer for those who either don't want to or can't (for example).

This is especially prevalent for mobile OS's, where building is an unfamiliar task or PITA for many, even hackers.

Would I personally? No. But I respect that decision.
