Are you aware that it's illegal to "dabble" in that world without a license?

But they can accept that the world is not geared towards amateur dabblers, and that a few hundreds of $ for a license (a license, meaning to legalize production usage, you can always copy from somewhere to "dabble") is nothing.

You didn't realize what you were doing was against the license?

Technically -- without a license, you can't.

"Use at your own risk" is not an adequate license, I'm afraid.

Someone concerned about licensing can't touch this with a ten foot pole.

It is not illegal but violates the license

Well, you can't practice "naked licensing".

If only it wasn't under a restrictive license....

jen20 | karma 5666 | avg karma 2.04 · | 2023-09-17 16:07:17

Why would you assume that there is no license in place for this?

calciphus | karma 1231 | avg karma 2.68 · | 2012-08-23 14:42:54

If you violate the license, it's illegal.

you dont "own" stuff, they "grant you a license", those fuckers

cjbprime | karma 11682 | avg karma 4.23 · | 2014-01-30 20:05:02+00:00

It's pretty restrictively licensed.

mnd999 | karma 3101 | avg karma 2.74 · | 2022-11-12 06:43:36

There’s no license though, right?

Andrew_nenakhov | karma 10663 | avg karma 3.44 · | 2021-09-16 05:37:10

Forbidden by the license.

tehwebguy | karma 7795 | avg karma 3.53 · | 2013-07-19 12:03:25

License? Can't use this without one.

catoc | karma 380 | avg karma 2.5 · | 2021-12-28 05:03:27

Sounds like we agree an explicit license is necessary. That begs the question which. From what I read, home-made licenses can be almost as problematic for legal folk as no license at all.

kragen | karma 31428 | avg karma 2.09 · | 2019-07-31 14:15:56+00:00

Oh, that's wonderful news! I had assumed the lack of license was intentional.

inemesitaffia | karma 204 | avg karma 0.27 · | 2024-02-26 00:08:23

You know there's a licensing issue right?

yankput | karma 409 | avg karma 3.05 · | 2023-08-31 00:50:11

Yeah, some FAQ on some random site doesn’t constitute a license

dymk | karma 8044 | avg karma 2.72 · | 2024-05-13 13:23:43

It's a license that hasn't been reviewed by legal, which is not the same as no license.
