There is always a clause in my contracts that lets me leave a "made by"
comment in stuff I make even if I sell the IP rights to the client. And
I never write it the same way in each page so that global search/replace
doesn't work...
Having work stolen is great for the ego. Just make sure you get well
paid for it so that it is also great for the bank balance.
If you keep IP rights on functions and stuff and if you stumble upon
them sue!!! Drag the thief in front of a judge.
