> the legislation and its (unintended) negative effects on developers of open-source software. The negative effects seem pretty intended to me. The legislators are aware of open source software and have an exception for non-commercial activities, but intentionally penalize OSS related to commercial activities, by leaving them out of that exception. And, at this point, I don't believe that these legislators are so stupid that they can't see the consequences of their proposals. They probably just don't care about the negative consequences, or the "negative consequences" (negative for us) are actually what they're striving for.
