Don't. Please stop. Don't publish anything you don't want shared. There was so much cool free stuff that everyone shared until content creators showed up trying to sell us shit like a bunch of car salesmen. Please stop

Oh, I do want it shared. I just don't want to be taken advantage of by immoral companies. That's why I would share it under licenses like AGPLv3 or CC BY-NC-SA. In a sense, I'm very much blocking others from taking the free stuff I share and turning it into a commercial product, because I do feel the same as you.

A.I. will destroy copyright completely, and I'm here for it. Art and commerce have no business being bedfellows.

But art, depending on your definition of art, has been sold for thousands of years. Even in Archaic Greece, potters were selling amphorae with intricately painted glazing on the side.

Oh, I think Art and Commerce should remain friends. And they'll probably hook up every now and then, when Art has too much to drink. But they've been way too cozy lately.
