Explaining React's license

Re:Explaining React's license by itsbits on Saturday August 19, 2017 @01:05AM (#15051783)

I am no pro in understanding these licensing issue. Can someone help me how this affects if i) ReactJS is used in a company/organisation for their proprietor software? ii) ReactJS is used in a company/organisation for their distributed licensing software? iii) ReactJS is used in a company/organisation for a software which is opensourced?

If you use React you basically can't sue Facebook for infringing your patents, so it is giving them a free pass on your IP.

Of course you can sue them. It just comes with consequences.
