Herein lies the key for IP protection. Never use cloud hosted coding tools as the world will soon be able to copy your homework at zero cost.


I for one love it that we can copy each other's homework. The open source mindset is what made me fall in love with this industry, and I love the fact that sharing code got easier. If you really want to continue reinventing wheels, go ahead.
