- honkler 4y agoso what? You can put on a cowboy hat and larp as one, but that does not mean everyone else around you have to take it seriously. Same way with these made up licenses. If it's on the internet, it belongs to all. Or else keep it with yourself.
- jen20 4y agoSo, if you are not compliant with the posted license, you are in violation of copyright. This is no different whether you are honkler or Microsoft (other than in how vigorously or not someone may enforce it). If you really believe that anything posted to the internet ‘belongs to all’ then I don’t know what to tell you other than you live in a fantasy land where Oracle Corporation does not exist. We might all prefer it if things were that way, but they simply aren’t, and that’s just tough.
- wilg 4y agoOnly if you agree it is "redistributing" anything! Small enough pieces of code can't be copyrighted. No one would support an argument that I violated copyright by using the code "else if {" from some GPL library. So the question becomes what is the minimal unit of copyrightable code? What if you wrote a nice big function exactly (or almost exactly) the same way as someone else did? Whose copyright are you violating?
