@communiteatime @sjvn @fuzzychef Google’s OSPO has done a lot of great work over the years advancing the values of software freedom, both in a social and technical way. it is a loss in the big picture view.
but the OSPO is one of the largest anti-copyleft voices in the room. there have been several instances where i have had to choose non-copyleft licenses for my projects, because of how the OSPO influenced the industry resulting in my employment contracts disallowing copyleft licenses.
@communiteatime @sjvn @fuzzychef so given that, i think it’s ultimately a good thing that OSPO is so effectively gutted that it’s basically dissolved. one of the largest anti-copyleft lobbyists in the industry will be gone. that is a good thing for software freedom.
