You publish open source code so that others can benefit from it, and if Google uses it maybe billions of people will benefit from it, so I disagree.

- i80and 5y agoThis is an individual choice; people have motivations beyond "maximize usage of my code".
- maeln 5y agoEveryone has different reason to publish their code using open-source license. I like sharing my code but I don't like when multi-billion dollar company make a profit from it for example. Ofc, that's what I agreed to when I release my code under open-source license, but we are all free to have different sentiment about it.
