- Turing_Machine 5y agoIf the scriban people didn't want that to happen, they could have used a license (e.g., GPL) that prohibits it. Some of us use BSD or MIT licenses precisely for that reason. I'm happy if someone uses my MIT-licensed code in a commercial product. That's why I chose that license. It's not "morally reprehensible" in any way.
- jaywalk 5y agoIt's not "technically" legal, it's fully legal in every sense. And using someone's code for a purpose they explicitly allowed is about as far from morally reprehensible as it gets.
- marginalia_nu 5y agoIf you don't want people to base closed source software on your work, then you shouldn't be granting them a license that explicitly permits them to do exactly that. AGPL is an option if that is what you want.
