brb relicensing everything under this

Github won't allow you to write software license terms based on people's gender, nationality or race.

Corporations take your GPL'd software and use it to their hearts content because as long as they don't publish their modifications, they don't have to publish their source code either.

But it can. The GPL on purpose doesn't contain any restrictions on spyware. That's why the FSF was so butthurt about the HESSLA license: gnu.org/licenses/hessla.html

If it's distributed, binaries or source, it must conform to the GPL.

And how would you prove they use GPL software?

>free as in freedom
>forces you to share

No, you can take GPL software and never ever share any of it if you want, no matter how many changes you make to it.

Why are you on Sup Forums when you're so obtuse with technology?

That's why GPL essentially mandates backdoors.

this. as long as you dont sell it, or close the source to distribute it, you can do whatever the hell you want

>dont sell it
You can sell it, you just have to sell it completely.

>land of the free
>not allowed to murder people on the streets
wtf I hate freedom now

BSD sucks.

In theory you can sell GPL software, but in practice you can't. Even if you charge money for it, someone can just fork it and distribute it freely. That's why all GPL software is free.

>based on people's gender or race.

The license never mentioned gender or race. >InB4 Radical Muhammadanism is a race.

>nationality

It doesn't say that because there ARE laws in place banning certain technology exports to Iran, NK, and the like.

Remember that if it's free, then you're the product

>The license never mentioned gender or race
Can you not read?

"Someone can" doesn't mean "someone will." For example, if you sell a high performance database management software to businesses for their records under the GPL for a high price, why would they turn around and throw it on a git repository for all of their competitors to use?

Link?

Feminism is not a gender.
Israeli citizenship is not a race.
Belief in Islam is not a race.

What gives you the right to share with non-sharing restrictions something that you only got because of sharing?

Owncloud sells their mobile client a price on the play store.
You can also get the compile it yourself if you want and it is also on f-droid.
The main Ubuntu flavor is sold using a pay what you want model.
It is usually more work than it is worth though.

Indeed, I didn't see how carefully worded it was as for the Isreali thing. Nicely done.

That's weird since GitHub allows some notorious projects with non-free licenses (or no license which is worse).

>not allowed to murder people on the streets
Look up "stand your ground"-laws, user. Just remember: When you killed whoever you killed, you were afraid of them!

Standing your ground is not murder

Yes, that's exactly how this law works.

>ad hominem

You can't prove use of software without putting markers in it that will show up in the compiled executables.
