Once again, if i leave my sofa on the curb, i am not a supplier. It may happen that someone pick it out. That does not change the fact i am not a supplier of so

  And yet, you keep coming into the new sofa owner’s house and fixing rips and adding embellishments… I mean, the analogy sucks. But it’s worth considering that you’re doing more than just putting it into the ether.

    No you come back for more improved sofas. Original sofa owner doesn’t even have to know who took it. Analogy doesn’t suck, looking through “I’m entitled” lenses distorts the picture for you.

      Sure. But few go whining back to the original coder when the code is abandoned. It’s when the code is maintained, bugs are fixed, releases are put together, etc. that people start acting entitled. A better analogy would be someone who opens a sofa depo, starts giving away “as-is” sofas, then starts building new sofas and improving them. Some people take those sofas and use them in rental homes. Then it turns out that someone planted listening devices in some of the sofas, so the landlords start showing up at the depo and asking questions about supply chain security…
