I get asked about why I license noscrypt under lgpl often so I added my reason to the startup documentation. Corps can easily use mostly gpl licensed things, especially lgpl and they do often. It's nearly impossible to write any Linux application without linking to gnu libc, or other lgpl equivalent. It can be done, and is done without much friction. IMO, I just requires you to respect the developer and their users. I see the lgpl specifically in noscrypt as protecting my user's rights when using my software.

i always CC0 or unlicense whenever i get a say in it
i'm more concerned about it getting patented than someone else using it
someone else using it would be an honor
