If you look at it from this perspective, it sounds way more obvious. I like this PoV.
That is one hell of a garden path sentence
Tech bro: I don't know you stranger. But here is the source code of my lifelong project, have fun and do whatever you want with it
Etsy Artist: NO, you cannot have the raw files of your wedding pictures, are you insane? THOSE ARE MINE AND ONLY MINE!. I want to be paid for anytime you vaguely look in the direction of anything I done, FOREVER!
But you are telling me the former is the greedy bad guy and the later is the light for the revolution or something.
I'll go all in:
Tech bro: I'm taking all of your creative work without permission, all your personality, uniqueness, everything that makes you worth anything as an artist. I will make billions and give you absolutely nothing in return.
Artists: here are my artworks for you to enjoy for free. You can listen / look / share / whatever. But I'd love to make more of this instead of being a cashier, can I get $5? Or $0.00000000001 per view/play?
I'm inclined to say that TechBros are usually not the ones whose work they give away for free*, and they really care more about profits than anything.
* there are a multitude of ways to provide information but making sure it's useless, for AI models that usually comes in a way of providing the source code but not training data or architecture, so that you'll need to do most of the work again. A lot of them don't do even that.
Please note, this comment is off topic to the OP post and is only about your idealistic view of TechBros
