FOSS swamp logic:
1. I want to help people in need, so I'm just going to leave my house open, put stickers all over town with the adress and a note that the house is open to anybody and help yourself (only if you really need), and go on vacation.
2. HELP! HELP! POLICE! They robbed everything from my house!
Because "legally", you didn't allow anybody to rob your house while leaving it untended and with invites all over town. Just as I "legally" don't allow anybody to steal my wallet if I throw it into the middle of a busy train terminal.
But it's time to stop playing these games, step out of the swamp and into human dignity: which is to not willfully make yourself a victim and then complain, when you have all the control already of what code you contribute where.
