Mar 6, 2023 at 16:43 | comment | added | amon | @leo848 I discuss the differences between these licenses in another answer. In brief, the Unlicense has inconsistent/contradictory terms. It was written by a programmer, not by an expert copyright lawyer. It attempts to be a public domain dedication with a permissive fallback license, but it's unclear whether this goal is achieved in all jurisdictions. Everyone understands what it's trying to do, though. And since it has found widespread use (despite its severe problems), it was later OSI-approved as an Open Source license. | |
