  I assume someones clicked the [FLAG] button too many times. There's no requirement or dialog that asks why a flag is placed. I've seen this type of license abuse before. I think it was some windows joystick remapping software that forbid Israel from using it. But to see "Social Justice Cause of the Week" hosted in a licensing document tells me very strongly that this software is pure amateur hour and to steer anyone around me away. Stallman puts it best in his essay here: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/programs-must-not-limit-freedom-to-run.en.html https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/programs-must-not-limit-freed... " There would be programs banned for use in meat processing, programs banned only for pigs, programs banned only for cows, and programs limited to kosher foods. Someone who hates spinach might write a program allowing use for processing any vegetable except spinach, while a Popeye fan might allow use only for spinach. There would be music programs allowed only for rap music, and others allowed only for classical music. " - RMS
