Parent suggested free software would be the exception to this rule. Personally, i don't understand why it's even legal to publish binary code without the corresponding source, but at least their point made sense: volunteer-run projects need to be exempted from such regulation, and there's exactly zero reason a volunteer-run project should not be free-software.
