Dylan, useful idiot with commit access, pushed age verification PRs to systemd, Ubuntu & Arch, got 2 Microslop employees to merge it, called it 'hilariously pointless' in the PR itself, then watched Lennart personally block the revert. Unpaid compliance simp.
There’s no need to follow an unjust law, nor a law that makes you an unethical person.
“Software not for distribution or use in California” (aka: “offer void in Nebraska”) is a perfectly valid compliance, btw.
You can’t put license conditions on LGPL code. Surprised you got 49 upvotes with nobody explaining that.
Are you sure? LGPL and other *PL licenses do already include terms where the rights and privileges granted by the license are limited by local applicable law, and this would be simply a case of denoting one of a number of local laws that apply.
And if you comply with unjust laws, then it’s way harder to challenge them in the courts.
There’s also going the Ageless route and making protestware.
Yeah they seem to be absolutely fun.
