    Publishing it under GPL does benefit the humanity because any improvement on it will be also available to everyone. Letting corps take your work and put a monetary/legal block for people to use freely doesn’t seem like benefiting humanity that much.

      No, it will not be available to everyone. Just the clients of the corpo and they can request the source. If you’re not a client, you still have no rights.
