Turns out that WTFPL has the effect of being ultra-permissive, while effectively preventing use by gigantocorps with teams of paranoid lawyers.
Win!
(Edit: this also happened with a project that I started and licensed as WTFPL. Maintainership quickly passed onto someone else, but the licence remained and was a problem for precisely no-one until Intel decided that they wanted to use the software... except their lawyers wouldn't accept WTFPL. The maintainer decided to relicense as ISC and that's cool, but it's further proof that WTFPL effectively immunises against gigantocorps.)
