"All programmers agree: Aslong as you distribute your changes to the source code as a PATCH file: you do not have to give a damn about the copyright. You can do whatever you want."

This is BS

#Cognitive bias

"[Rant] When it comes to open source licensing then such cognitive bias can go off the scale in to absurdity. In my view open source licensing is just dumb, and it is obvious to me at least that problems, arguments and misunderstands are going to prevail. Also it can be a pointless endeavor to try to explain the complexities of licensing to people who are trapped by their own cognitive bias. #Dunning Kruger effect. [End of rant]"

Open source is dumb when it comes to copyright.

Also,
Open source licensing is particularly moronic when it comes to derivative works. Really really moronic. This is because whoever came up with it simply didn't understand what they were doing and how complex things would get when you start making derivative works of 'derivative works' and then someone else makes another 'derivative work' and then another 'derivative work' etc. etc. etc.
