       IBM Pushing Apache2 License onto all qiskit repositories on GitHub
        
       Noticed this the other day, several users who appear to work for
       IBM have been pushing the Apache2 license onto users who have used
       a specific library. It appears automated and some of these repos
       haven't been worked on in years. Not sure what the end goal is for
       IBM to push this, but its very strange to see. It appears to be
       automated in some way because empty repos are even getting hit:
       https://github.com/B00TK1D/qiskit-playground/issues/1. You can see
       the full list here https://tinyurl.com/3ba4b6j4 where many repos
       are happily applying Apache2. Since Apache2 is pretty permissive
       doesn't this mean IBM can utilize these libraries as they see fit
       internally?
