That is exactly why I am not open sourcing my .NET bindings for TensorFlow.

I don't know the details of your project, but what if you open sourced under the GPL?

I feels as though the world has soured on the GPL in recent years, but whenever I see this type of sentiment—that open sourcing work is just a gift from small developers to big tech companies, or something thereabouts—I think, wouldn't the GPL solve that problem?

Sure, big companies can still use GPL'd code, but they're forced to give back as much as they take, which is exactly the outcome you want.

(This doesn't necessarily apply to the situation with AppGet, however.)

That would not have helped MongoDB. I considered their new license, but it seemed tailored to their specifics. So maybe more research is required.

Perhaps a variant of CC-BY NC would be better, but it is not tailored to code.

The P2P Foundation has some writings on licenses they label as "copyfair", "copyfarleft", and "copyjustright"

These are pretty interesting. Thanks for the links.

I like how this general direction is discussed a lot in France, and sad about learning a language taking so much effort.
