If you released your code under the BSD license, you'd know that people could 
make your code proprietary, so how would that make it against your will?
Personally, I like the BSD license.  I thnk I'd be pretty proud of myself if some huge company decided to use "little-ol-me's" code in their project.. But that's just me :)
