I’d argue it is protecting programmers. Previously, people would waste programmers’ time with poorly concepted/uncreative app ideas. But now people are going “oh I can do that on my own”, and wasting their own time with AI vibe coding.
The old "I have this great idea for an app! If you build it for me, you can have 10% of the profits!".
And then you ask for the idea, and at first they don't want to give it away with your agreement, and in the end it turns out to be either whatsapp of amazon.
