Re:An Ethical License for Open Source Projects

This is not an open source license and completely incompatible with many licenses and projects.
Any existing project attempting to transition to such would get forked. New projects using it will get ignored.
This license is worse than WTFPL or the Json license (note the legal hassles that IBM had to go trough to use it). If that’s what the author wants... um... ok. But I can’t use any software using that license in personal or work projects for compatibility or fear of litigation.
