The majority of businesses that rely on exploiting weak licenses coincidentally agree.","comments":[{"id":41711736,"user":"breck","time":1727804900,"time_ago":"a year ago","type":"comment","content":"

I use a license to absolve myself of legal liability and to cuck private forks because it's really funny. If that means I don't get to be the Tim Berners-Lee of having my ass reamed for commercial applications, I'll be one happy loser.","comments":[{"id":41714606,"user":"breck","time":1727819364,"time_ago":"a year ago","type":"comment","content":"

If you're a winner loser lawyers will come after you no matter what, and "licenses" provide you with absolutely no protection.

But all lawyers will tell you you need a license, because they are losers who can't build real things, and need to convince you that you need them (you don't).","comments":[{"id":41715479,"user":"talldayo","time":1727825287,"time_ago":"a year ago","type":"comment","content":"

Lawyers lick my boot. Free software licenses are a nightmare to litigate, take too long to process, and don't reward damages in the first place. For every free software program that gets dragged into court, 500 independent businesses are sued for false advertising or letting ChatGPT write their TOS.

I sleep like a baby because I know that there isn't a bar qualified lawyer in America dumb enough to sue me. Cry about it, it's not my problem because I'm not a sniveling corporate sycophant.","comments":[{"id":41715793,"user":"breck","time":1727827345,"time_ago":"a year ago","type":"comment","content":"

I'm right there with you.

Licenses are for losers. All licenses are for losers.
