@ben I'm longing for a new set of free (as in beer) software and creative licenses that prevent all this garbage.

I put my software out there so other people can use it, I'm even ok if they make money out of it. But I'm not ok with my work being swallowed by a big machine so that people can print money without even knowing it exists at all.

@agersant @ben same here.

I wonder is GPL is any better, published a couple of things under that, but haven't checked in a while.

@ben @agersant @ttntm there are licenses like Do No Harm[1] which talk about environmental damage, though I have yet to come across one which is explicitly about this current batch of nonsense. In some ways it feels like if GPL was enough, we wouldn’t be in this mess; I read a post[2] to that effect a while ago and haven’t gotten it out of my head.
