    good explanation, I wouldn’t call your English poor :)

    to put it another way: permissive non-copyleft free software licenses like MIT grant everyone the freedom to create derivative works which can deny other people freedom later, which is why predatory companies start salivating and rubbing their hands like OP’s man in the yellow jacket when they find high quality permissively-licensed code.
