I get some BSD code, for example nginx, I improve it and add my
copyright besides the original one.
And I distribute object code only. I don't see how does this help
nginx, It only helps me.
So what ? your point is moot.
Everyone here knows what the BSD licence is: do what the fuck you want with
the code. The only thing you're not allowed to do is claim you wrote it when
you didn't.
The licence does NOT prevent you from doing bad, evil things. Your moral
compass should.
If that annoys you, go back to the carebears GPL land.

Thank you, I was waiting for some one to call out the troll.
I've always considered the GPL license the ultimate helicopter parent.
Besides I'm sure you know how many hardware vendors ignore the GPL license
when they base their embedded system on Linux.
