Is it possible to do something legal, yet morally wrong?

“By selecting this license I give anyone permission to do X, Y, and Z with my software - provided they do A as well.”

“I’m going to chose to do Z and A with your software.”

“Moral hazard! Moral hazard!”

Picking a license indicates what you are willing to have others do with your work. If you don’t want people to be able to monetize it, pick a different license.

It's possible. But there is nothing immoral here.
