I love how these "free, open-source, trust everyone" types turn into tight-fisted goose-steppers when it's THEIR product or intellectual property on the block, and not "everyone else's."

Been in and around tech for 30 years and watched the cycle over and over, to the point where I won't take dewy-eyed college gangs with The Next Big Idea as clients any more.
