- thaumasiotes 8y agoAs I point out sidethread, he hasn't actually modified the license, so it seems fine for him to use the "MIT license" name. He's published a list of companies, such as Amazon, to which he isn't directly granting permission to use the software. But anyone who isn't on the list, such as Jeff Bezos in his personal capacity, is free to both provide the software to the companies on the list and to grant them permission without restriction to use, copy, modify, distribute, sublicense, or otherwise benefit from the software.
