>I think one of the more prominent issues folks take with mass training on OSS is that the companies doing it are now profiting for having done it.
What makes this more objectionable than profiting off open source projects by using it directly? eg. tech giants using linux as a server OS, rather than having to pay microsoft thousands per server for a windows server license? With the original GPL, they don't even have to contribute back any patches.
