I don't know. I have a copy of the declaration of Human rights that I grabbed at last CCC and most of the principles do not relate to software engineering unless you stretch then quite a bit.

What I mean to say is that it might have the opposite effect.

The good joke! Most of them are refractory to the GPL! And you'd want them to get human rights???
