Comment on Wii Homebrew Community "Built On Lies And Copyright Infringement"

I see the headline and think “sooooo…?”
I read the article and I’m left continuing with the same question… They’re trying to say that it’s built on a library full of Nintendo code.
Whoop-de-fuck… Other than Nintendo, who cares? Why care? Libraries, SDKs, and drivers SHOULD be free and open source.

How can one steal foss code if it’s free and open source?

Not quite “steal”, but they removed license and attribution information, which is a no-no and license infringement for sure.
But yeah, this is all of no consequence.

They repackage it as proprietary in violation of the license
