"It looks like Meta is trying to push a license that has some trappings of an open source license but, in fact, has the opposite result. Additionally, the Acceptable Use Policy, which the license requires adherence to, lists prohibited behaviors that are very expansively written and could be very subjectively applied – if you send out a mass email, could it be considered spam?"#KarenSandler, Software Freedom Conservancyhttps://www.theregister.com/2023/07/21/llama_is_not_open_source/#OpenSource #SharedSource #EthicalSource

Remember when the Shared Source/ morality license crowd were calling people like me "FOSSbros", and apologists for tech corporations, when we warned them that any weakening of the Open Source Definition would come back to bite them in the arse? Feeling any discomfort in the nether regions there guys?

@strypey Seems to me that anyone who believes in moralitylicenses or shared source implicitly accepts the concept of intellectualproperty, which is even more ridiculous than the concept of physical property.I'm both fond of and uneasy with AGPLv3. Fond of, because it's a legitpro-user and anti-exploitation license. Uneasy with, because I know thatat the end of the day, the solution is to eliminate capitalism, not doubledown on its pernicious legal fairy tales like intellectual property.

@chris> the solution is to eliminate capitalism, not doubledown on its pernicious legal fairy tales like intellectual propertySure. Copyleft is a strategic engagement with the legal reality of copyright. Using or supporting it doesn't require believing in unicorns, or other fictions like "IP".
