Actually, it IS a requirement of the MIT license: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

From what I understand, the person OP is referring to did not include the copyright notice, and provided zero attribution until pressed.

> This is just how open source works.

No, open source works because people believe that even if their work is being used for free, their contribution is recognized. People like who the OP is referring to chill that sentiment and do immense harm to the "open source" ethos.

And if you open source work is being used by someone to generate revenue for themselves; then they should be a good open source community member and give back to the root project with contributions, community engagement, promo, collaborations, and even paying them sponsorships and donations.

I don’t think you have a full understand of the situation.

I am open to discussing it further with the community and resolving this unneeded gripe.
