> Interception is LGPL
The library is LGPL for non commercial purposes. A contradiction. Drivers and installers are called binary assets. Access to all source code is provided with a commercial license.[1]

- accoil 2y agoOh right, I keep forgetting that. The LGPL part is just the library that lets apps talk to the driver. I still think the main thing Interception has going for it is code signing. I once wrote a keyboard filter driver for personal use, but due to signing requirements I never felt it was worth the trouble & cost trying to use it past the computer I developed it on (and then later moved to firmware based solutions like QMK).
- wakawaka28 2y agoThe LGPL license applies to the code that they do provide. It's kinda misleading but you have the option to pay and get the code, or not pay and only get what you see. Seems fair enough.
- pseudalopex 2y agoThe contradiction is not the library is LGPL and the driver and installer are proprietary. The contradiction is LGPL does not allow a non commercial restriction.
