The continuous-rugpull part of demanding CLAs is selling other people's work as proprietary. You'll hear much less complaining if you're selling your own work

The continuous-rugpull part of demanding CLAs is selling other people's work as proprietary.
You'll hear much less complaining if you're selling your own work under a second license.
- piaste 3y agoIt feels unfair to describe it as a "rugpull" when the first bullet point, in bold, reads: > *Grant of copyright license*. You give HashiCorp permission to use your copyrighted work in commercial products. https://www.hashicorp.com/cla https://www.hashicorp.com/cla Unless that text was recently changed, or unless Hashicorp went out of its way to verbally reassure people that they didn't intend to ever exercise that option, I feel very little sympathy for any open source contributor who clicked that link and then was dismayed to find Hashicorp using his work in a commercial product. Read what you sign, and take responsibility.
