Why is proprietary-licensed software unethical?

Kimi K3 itself isn't FOSS. Speaking of reciprocity: Fireworks is presumably paying Moonshot serious money for the right to do what they are doing here, since Kimi's license[0] excludes commercial inference providers (such as Fireworks) from gratis use. It requires them to: "...enter into a separate agreement with Moonshot AI before using the Software or its derivative works..."

What you say is true, and Moonshot definitely has an agreement with Fireworks, but it still just feels wrong. It’s not the America I grew up in, where if you took, you gave back. I know that’s not a very coherent and practical position, but it feels true to me.
