Software copyright like this is fucking stupid.

It's retarded. Contributors hold copyright regardless of any copyright notice, unless they explicitly give it up in some way.

"Copyright (C) YYYY" means nothing.
It should be "Copyright 2018 " or "© 2018 " and then "Daniel De Matteis, Jean-André Santoni, Brad Parker, Alfredo Moclús"

but why leave the other copy right notices in there? fucking dumb cunt

Copyright is automatic, you don't need a license. That said it's easier to deal with if you do have it. Kinda like "caution: do not eat paint" warning labels.

Top fucking kek:
Does anybody take seriously a loser from Ukraine who keeps his Dreamcast emulator source closed source? Answer me that.
A loser at that who expected the rest of Europe to confront Russia in World War 3 for his corrupt bullshit country at that. Nah thanks, I happily voted against the Ukraine referendum this year because I don't want any part in your little despotic country and the 'fights' it seeks with superpowers. The dirty oligarchs in your country created that mess, if you want a better quality of life, leave that place. Hell, maybe then you wouldn't have to keep your Dreamcast emulator sources closed source either and actually contribute to society at large instead of being a stain on it.

Its illegal, if you take a copyright message better delete the whole code contribution, Minecraft server ran into a big shitstorm with similar shit, fuck those that don't contribute with the same license than the project

It works exactly the same in most companies, everything you do is not yours.
They can make billions out of your code, you won't receive anything else than a small salary raise or some managing position. You're worthless to them most of the time.
You contribute to open source software to learn, share or you actually need some features, not for your epenis or to improve your resume.
