>So, my dear haters, I need to inform you that Log4j comes with a license that says "You are solely responsible for determining the appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License". You shouldn't blame Log4j developers Moving beyond the petulance of the post, I'm not sure why including an as-is clause implies that you should be free from criticism or blame forever. Faulty design is faulty design, regardless of the price tag or licenses. Of course, the developers are under no obligation to fix it if they don't want to, or if they are put-off by the criticism. That is their choice to make. But you don't get to just slap on a clause like that and be forever free from blame or criticism.
