    And you are actually okay with collateral damage just because one of the two party is shitty in a way you don’t like.

    You’re not sticking it to the man by stealing other people’s code. You’re just hurting the little guy who spent hours on it.

        Again you’re not sticking it to the man by stealing from the little guy. WTF do you think you’re justified stealing your friend’s DVDs because Netflix takes money from you? Do you really think you’re making a stand?

        You’re just looking for an excuse to be a shitty person.

          If your friend wouldn’t let you copy his DVDs to help artists defend themselves from being outright replaced by a soulless bot with no creativity of its own, they aren’t your friend.

            Noone is being prohibited from using the code, the code can be used if they comply with the license, which they didn’t.

            Do they make money off the snakeoil from artists? No. But they still make money off the snakeoil, they made quite a bit of it with glaze in the form of research grants etc, likely the same with nightshade. And in the end they just peddle false hope.
