Quite.
I find this doubly troubling, when someone using Linux for a desktop, learned how to code via free websites, with free software, builds a product using OSS libraries, etc, etc, and then wants to be compensated handsomely for their product.
Which is, of course, a tiny tiny little thing, compared to everything it depends upon.
OK. Fine. Did you compensate every part of the chain you used?
So weird.
AWS seems paricularly bad here. So does anyone who doesn't contribute back.
Ah well.

"Freedom! ... not like that!"
