    The advantage is that you can rebrand it, close the source and sell it as your invention.

    Btw, did you know that Apple invented Unix?

      Apple invented Unix?? What the hell are you talking about?

      Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, Brian Kernighan, Douglas McIlroy, and Joe Ossanna at Bell Labs developed and invented Unix.

        This was a joke about how Apple just takes open source stuff (in this case, they used FreeBSD as a basis for MacOS/iOS/iPadOS/tvOS/watchOS), rebrands it and then claims it was theirs.
