>Software developers should just open source all software they write and work for free - they can live off other things after all.

You might recall there was a large and vocal minority of software developers trying to bring about exactly that.

You might also recall it used to be true. The aforementioned minority was trying to bring about a state that had already occurred in the past.

I have no idea what you're trying to claim, but it has never been true that software developers all worked for free and gave away all software.

I am not a software developer btw :)

Also I don't believe in copyright that much
