    Someone biulds a thing and puts it on the curb in front of his house with a sign:

    I had fun building this and learnt a lot. Do with it whatever you want.  
    

    Then someone else comes along, takes it, and sells it.
    I fail to see how the inventor was taken advantage of. They presumably thought about which license they want to use and specifically chose this one.

      Taking without giving is always viewed negatively in social settings.

      Maybe “taking advantage of” is wrong but then again, it is a dick move anyway.
