I have no doubt your intentions were good and I am a fan of open-source myself. Unfortunately, since this was written, it’s become more widely known and commonplace for large corporations to disproportionally benefit from open source.

And that wouldn’t bother so many as much if it weren’t for the fact that large corporations often do not give back. It’s become so much of an issue that OSS maintainers have switched licenses, some have shifted closed-source, and others have simply abandoned their projects.

Just last week I began rethinking usage of MIT/Apache licenses for future work. For the longest time I was hesitant about GPLv3 and almost scared to use in my personal projects, but it turns out my hesitations were fueled by...large corporations.
