I agree it is a jerk move, but I also think it's a good lesson in choosing the appropriate license for your work. MIT is clearly not the right license if you feel that others should give you a courtesy credit. Regardless of how rude it is to do so, the MIT license tells people that it's OK to use your work without attribution. There's some CC licenses that would probably be more appropriate.

- ciupicri 11y agoAs others have already mentioned several times, the MIT license requires attribution.
- jakejake 11y agoIt requires the original license text to be included somewhere, nowhere does it say you have to give a credit or thanks. The author says specifically in his article that what the other person did was perfectly legit within the terms of MIT, so I can only assume the license was there somewhere. I take the Author at his word since he's the one ranting about not getting credit.
