With open source software you receive something very valuable: social capital, credit, respect.
Communism is where you do the work (or don't) and everybody is rewarded equally.
That's the Copilot model: you work hard to write the code, and receive nothing in return, because now everyone and their 10-year old brother can write it simply by asking for it... and your name never appears.
I wasn't robbed; I gave it away on purpose. I don't care if my name appears; credit was never the point. Sharing back to the community which has shared so much with me is enough.

You were robbed.
