Comment | The Anti-Capitalist Software License is a nonfree license because it extends the four freedoms only to some kinds of organizations, not to all. Such a restriction in a software license, in the name of any cause whatsoever, imposes too much power over users. Please don't use this license, and we urge you to avoid any software that has been released under it. https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#anticapitalist |
