During that 30 days every one of those pieces of paper would be a liability for the shredding company - they'd need to be protected against tampering with the same degree of diligence as the client uses, despite 99.999% of them being d

You left out an important detail: Project C is going to have to _support_ your "free" code in their product. If it breaks, even if not because of anything Project C did, their paying customers are going to demand work from THEM.

Cynical prediction: this will end up with copyright laws for words even dumber than the ones for music, where putting three notes in sequence can become EXCLUSIVE CORPORATE PROPERTY if you have enough lawyers.
