Bigotry via Software License

  • If this is bigotry, then what would we call the Russian and Iranian sanctions?

    I would suggest researching the definition of the word before using it.

    As far as I'm aware the software is free, it's in the developers right to choose who he/she awards his software to.

    We see a lot of women-only or ethnic-minority only projects in tech, yet nobody is calling those bigotries.

    Having said all this, I don't agree with the developer's world views, however this is like free speech, you have to allow it, wether you like it or not.

  • Bigotry - top contender for the 2016 most watered down word in the English language award.

    I think that the licence is perfectly reasonable.

  • Wow! I guess writing scientific software doesn't prevent you from being a profoundly ignorant twat. Bigotry is an understatement. Have a nice day, Adolf!

  • Even more bizarre - http://www.treefinder.de/downloads.html - the author seems incredibly butthurt that he hasn't been made rich off this piece of software (at least, that's the vibe I'm getting)
