  Wikipedia says [1]: "License: Proprietary, with free download. (with patent claim)" [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F.lux https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F.lux

    O...k? The linked page doesn't mention patents, Wikipedia doesn't identify what patent, and Wikipedia isn't exactly authoritative anyway. And also, what in the world does "Proprietary, with free download. (with patent claim)" mean??

      Proprietary means not open-standard/open-source. I remember this coming up on tech news sites a few years ago when I discovered f.lux... this article also makes mention of the patent-pending nature of the software: http://readwrite.com/2013/09/23/flux-a-hack-for-your-devices-and-your-sleep-schedule http://readwrite.com/2013/09/23/flux-a-hack-for-your-devices...
