Sorry, but if you give your software away for others to use, you really shouldn't complain when or if they do.

If you think its unfair ,change your lisence. There are allready commonlyused licenses that prevent such use. For one thing, GPL comes to mind.

As for Open BSD being more secure than Linux, I doubt it. It may be more secure than some Linux distros, but probably not the ones that are built with security in mind. Statemenst like this is a little too broad to take seriously.
