You know they will do that.
There seem to be quite a lot of us nobodies.

Neither the Free Software nor the Open Source movements try to fix the "problem" of selling software. You might want to read up on them.
When someone has been acting irresponsible, victim or not, blame-games often does little to prevent similar events in the future.
