Well licenses are window decorations when it comes to personal use.
- bayindirh 3y agoWell, no. Personal use doesn't free you the obligations GPL brings, for example.
- ghaff 3y agoAssuming you or a company doesn’t redistribute it, copyleft doesn't matter.
- yjftsjthsd-h 3y ago> doesn’t redistribute it Well sure, but that's a really big caveat.
- ghaff 3y agoI would assume personal use doesn’t involve redistribution. Probably true for most company software for internal use as well.
- CoastalCoder 3y agoDoes this vary by jurisdiction maybe?
- ilyt 3y agonope. If something in jurisdiction would make license invalid that would not mean you can do what you want with the code, that would mean that you can't use that license.
- anticensor 3y agoIf a jurisdiction releases you but does not prevent you from performing an obligation, licences do not typically consider that a reason for invalidation of the licence.
