The thing people don't understand is that copyright is really important to me, Google and open source. We have to be *exceptionally* clear who owns what if open source is going to work. Putting your head in the sand doesn't help anyone, and actively hurts open source.https://twitter.com/marcan42/status/1207234468928356352 …
Open source indeed only works to the extent that copyright works, and if you follow my past work closely you'd know I deeply care about copyright too. But when your rights have been taken by an overreaching employment contract, and the corporate processes don't work, what then?

There's a lot to unpack here that , well, just isn't my business to do so (see my previous post about talking about ex-employees) I'd suggest you read our docs if you're interested in how Google handles things now 8 years later. Past that, this isn't productive.

I know things have improved (the situation that I described is now blanket approved without request necessary, as I mentioned). Unfortunately, that wasn't the case when I was there.

That's fair, I don't know your work. Since IP (ALL rights) are legal creations they aren't inalienable or universal. Answers lie in common senses of fairness and practicality. At best these are moving targets. Glad to hear Google's trajectory is upward, I'll also read the docs!
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
