Re: [News] MAFIAA Sued (Directly) for $5 Million, by Cher

As for me, when it comes to Free Software (or /any/ IT) contributions
outside my employment ... all of it. When it came to my employment, I
got paid /once/ for the actual labour rendered, but I didn't hold the
beneficiaries of my work hostage in perpetuity. They paid for labour,
not some fictitious "IP". /Licenses/ are not "work", /labour/ is. The
only thing a proprietary license is, is a scam.
