“This is broken, here’s how I fixed it”

Vs “this is broken, you gave 90 days to fix it”

If you can’t see the difference you’re the existential threat to Free software that stems from the trillion dollar industries that just take.

> you have 90 days to fix it

Or else what? They release the report? That's standard and ffmpeg is open source anyway, anybody can find the bug on their own. There's no threat here.

If you're mad about companies using your software, then don't release it with a license allowing them to use it. Simple as that. I don't understand how people can complain about companies doing exactly what you allowed them to do.
