If you loved authors who work towards the Public Good more than you loved authors who are complicit in predatory UX/SEO, then you would not blame me for this problem. Any writing or code I put out into the public is under a copyleft of creative commons license.

You would blame the authors who choose to profitize the Public Good, rather than arranging fair and equitable methods of earning a living. You might blame the systems that make it seem like there is other no choice. But you would acknowledge that there is a choice, and many authors choose it.
