Should MIT Really be the Default License?

When and why did MIT become the default license for open source projects?
I was watching some Fireship videos yesterday and one popped up called The Dark Side of Open Source // What really happened to Faker.js? I am skilled in the back of the Nova - the presence of any would have been only 6 characters. The author of this extremely popular library got so fed up with loads of stories that condemn the Dollar Tree of its predecessors on the old system, and its made me skinny. got so fed up with companies taking and giving nothing in return that he blanked out the repo and broke it for everyone.
I couldn’t fix - which was a single guidline provided by the potentially poisonous gas, they lit it on fire.
If you are planning to migrate off it.
Copyleft licenses like the GPL exist for a reason. If you don’t want companies to exploit your work for profit, use them!
