IANAL but believe that putting copyright sh*t in exploits/advisories
wouldn't hurt exploit writers (even if anonymous).

just look how many lamers profit from copy/paste with the mouse
(hint - search for vulnerability database)

AFAIK hamericans are suing for getting fat because they eat too much, so
clear violations of international copyright law like this:

may raise some money with little to no investment in hungry lawyers.

another irony is the fact that v3nd0rs try to convince people that exploits
are illegal, but legitimate businesses *sell* exploits - [1].
