“In case this is a real question?”
Anyway, I just read through the settlement and I didn’t see any explicit transfer of ownership of he code in there. I’m not a lawyer though, there are some things in there I may not understand the implications of.

FWIW I am not one of the jerks who downvoted you, I think your comment contributes to discussion even if I’m the end it turns out to be wrong. I think people just see the downvote button as a “disagree” or “you’re wrong” button, don’t let it get to you.
Don’t worry about it, the angry edit was meant to be humorous- in general I agree that it’s a mistake to let downvotes upset you.
(And because I’m the admin of my own instance, the votes are made visible through the UI. So if I wanted to be a vindictive weirdo about it, I could… 😉)
