Not saying that there aren't people like that, but this ain't it. This tool specifically targets open source. The intention is to ruin things that aren't owned and controlled by someone. A big part of AI hate is hyper-capitalist like that, though they know better than saying it openly.

People hoping for a payout get more done than people just being worried or frustrated. So it's hardly a surprise that they get most of the attention.
