Hmmm... Then take the same decision about all other protected contents, and copy and publish it as you want, and assume the risk yourself.
A licence does not require to inform you that you are abusing it. The licence already contains provisions that you have already approved. By not following its terms, you are breaking a contract, so you can be legally the object of a judiciary procedure, without being told first that you break the law. In fact youalready knw that you are breaking the law when you break a contract unilaterally.
note: the LimeWire licence is not "GLU" (???) but the GPL, i.e. the General Purpose Licence published by the GNU Foundation. |
hmm i'm not saying that AT ALL, i just said that you are having a verry interesting discussion but why keep it at all, leave it to the ppl that are directly involved IE. the limewire team and frostwire team. you DON'T know information they have exchanged between them. i just mean to say: don't bitch down on frostwire nothing more nothing less. don't bitch down on anything in another forum at all actually, i mean if you have problems with something frostwire team did, say it on that forum, so they know.
but for the rest of the discussion it's verry interesting seeing the different opinions
