> I like the aspect that people who don't care about copyright have an advantage, and people who have internalized it cannot even use the code privately or look at it. I think it tells that I am not a big fan of the idea of intellectual property...
I can’t stop you doing that. I’m not sure I even want to. I hate copyright, and while I’m not sure it should be completely destroyed, certainly it should be weakened by — say — ninety percent.
However, that doesn’t mean I’m willing to break it. What I’ve internalised, having seen the alternative, isn’t copyright — it’s the rule of law. I’m not willing to break that just because it’s personally inconvenient.
