I don't know what you're arguing against but it's certainly not the point I was making.

I didn't say "artists should be given money because they tried hard." I said that if you're profiting off someone's work, you should pay them.

Haha. Do you think this applies to the FOSS world? What a cruel world you must think we live in.

FOSS licenses explicitly grant you some rights, exactly because the author(s) wanted to do so.

Most of what FOSS license do is explicitly denying the exploitation by someone or some entity wanting to profit from it, without giving anything back.

For example

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html
