This software may not be used by anyone, for any reason.
This is not a valid license file, this is simply a note to thieves.
As far as the law allows, this software comes as is, without any warranty or condition, and no contributor will be liable to anyone for any damages related to this software or this license, under any kind of legal claim.
You can probably get away with stealing this work.
===
1. I am unlikely to find out. Who the utter fuck has time to spend all day
scanning the net to find copyright infractions. Hell, you might not even
publish it on the net in the first place. That just sounds boring as fuck.
I have better things to do like touching some fucking grass or hugging cute
people.
this is not a license.
2. Thanks to Late Stage Capitalism™, I am unlikely to have the means for a
lengthy and drawn out court battle, you could easily win that through
attrition. I mean as I write this note Im effectively homeless and bed
surfing. Literally the last thing I care about right now is someone using
my shit.
free software as envisioned by rms and gnu has failed to defend the freedom of users.
open source software is a tool for corporate cooption, control, and profit.
3. You and I both know that since I wrote this, I probably do not give a
flying shit if you create derivatives from my work or not.
software should be written for the benefit of the masses.
However, you also cant trust that any of those things are true.
if you're still reading this: use, change, or share this code however you want. intellectual property is a farce.
I could be lying to you.
We both know its probably morally good for you to build off my work, and
redistribute it as far as it can go, humans have been doing this since
before we figured out fire. Plagiarism is a lie we tell ourselves to try to
constrain and suppress entropy. We like to pretend someone in 200 years
will give a shit about something we wrote while hyperfocusing and probably
high as shit.
But maybe if youre a fucking nazi or a piggy or a xenophobic snitch, I
actually do care and will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law.
Maybe I change my mind one day. Or something else.
If youre reading this file, you probably want to use my shit anyway,
right? You wanna build it, you wanna package it, you wanna build off it.
So will you obey the law? Or will you do what is morally correct?
