@drewdevault You can exercise power to maximize freedom, and this is what happens here, although there is benefits to permissive licensing in the real world like with corporations using FreeBSD. It benefits both parties more than it would otherwise e.g. if Sony was about to make an OS for PlayStation from the ground up, it will be harder for them while FreeBSD won't get anything in return, cause they aren't a party in that case. It causes more good than harm, if any.
