Those people these days are a vanishing minority. This is not the early-00s anymore.
The reality is that, nowadays, the overwhelming majority of developers touches FOSS code every day and just assumes they're entitled to use it as they see fit. The folks that came up with "copyleft" or care about licenses, are very much not in the driving seat. Blame FAANGs and their hatred for GPL.
