That also does not mean you cant call out the corporations that are leaching off open source...

I find it ironic that people are more upset at this guy for complaining about corporations, than they are about the corporations leaching...

the dev and hacker communities have really gone full on #HailCorporate haven't they. Where did my anti-establishment Libre community of the 90's go... I long for the good old days

We're not upset at the guy for complaining about corporations. We're upset at him for pulling a stunt that may have hurt some large corporations, but mostly just caught a lot of small projects in the crossfire.
Watching people piss into the wind is fun until you get some on your shoes.
He is leeching off a "corpo" by hosting his library on a "corpo" site.
