@alyssennguyen I am trying to help you.

You know why? Literally every single time I’ve seen someone guard his idea so badly, he either turned out to be a kid or a guy who literally has no idea what he’s doing, and doesn’t even have that great of an idea to begin with.

As I’ve said, you are wasting your time.

@alyssennguyen You literally want to have your cake and bang it too. If it’s opensource under a permissive license, a potential company will be able to just take your code and use it. And if it’s proprietary or under a stricter license, it’s so, so, SO easy for a company with a proper budget to reverse-engineer it and make its own version. To restrict it, you’ll have to file a patent, but then guess what, you’re screwing everyone who wants to do the same thing, and it’s up to you to defend that patent.

Stop being paranoid.

@alyssennguyen
Let me tell you something. Ideas by themselves are worth next to nothing. Unless you are a business wanting to profit and is in highly competitive market, there is no reason to bother.

@alyssennguyen
Do you really think your idea is so genius you need an entire NDA and written copyright? God damn I wish I had self-esteem this high.

MIT license is what you need. That’s it.
