People have their own reasons why they publish their software as opensource. Many just scratch their own itch and/or enjoy writing code and making it available to others, **no strings attached**. Companies should do well to take this into consideration and not put the onus on OSS developers with whom they have no contract with.
If you expect your users to read and abide by EULAs, you should at least do a cursory read of the licenses of your OSS dependencies.
