            Afterall a healthy mentality. Even if I think Rossmann does some great things - he is still a rando on the internet.

            Me as a dev understands the desire to protect your work against malicious actors. On the other hand some of the best work is GPL licensed. IMO their license provides an ok middle ground between protection and non-commercial redistribution.

            Let actions speak louder than words.
