It's akin to me putting up billboards and stickers around town and then demanding to decide who gets to look at them.
Same thing with online publishers. If they want to control who uses their content and how, there's a tried and true solution and it's spelled "paywall".
I don't think the Free Software Foundation is asking a lot when it uses the rule of law to control who uses their content and how.
And no, sharing your labor for free with anyone who wants it (as long as they agree to a few simple rules) is nothing like putting up a billboard and "demanding to decide who gets to look at them".
The entire premise of billboards is to force people to look at something they had no intention or desire to look at. You weren't forced to search for, look at, or use someone's free software or other type of content. You did so willingly and intentionally.
Recipes are a good real world example of open source working properly. Anybody is free to use and improve. And anybody is free to not share their recipes or improvements with the public.
