You shouldn't. If you contribute to a project under a permissive license that is what you sign up for.
I contributed to projects under permissive licenses myself, there is nothing wrong with it. Being indignant about companies exercising the rights you explicitly granted them is unwarranted though.
- anonzzzies 3y agoYou can always fork in that case, I guess.
- weinzierl 3y agoYou can, and that is ok. It would not help you if you feel shafted, because then the next company comes around and takes your contributions, uses them as intended without giving back and you'd still feel the same. I think you should not feel shafted, but if you do there is a simple and obvious solution.
