It is really shocking people can think this way when also making use of hundreds of people's free labour, and when the very existence of most of programming careers are a direct product of OSS innovation. Hopefuly this attitude is not the widespread one.

Plenty of people get paid to work on OSS. I imagine that Linus is pretty well compensated.

Those people are volunteering their time. I'm one of them. But that doesn't mean owed something as a result, that's absurd. I made OSS because I wanted to.
