# +STEF IS GAY License
|
|
|
|
## About
|
|
The +STEF IS GAY License is a license modifier that requires the inclusion of the phrase "STEF IS GAY" in the LICENSE file.
|
|
|
|
## Why?
|
|
By including the phrase "STEF IS GAY" in a LICENSE file that must be distributed with the software you will ensure:
|
|
- The software will not be used or hosted by western corporations that promote censorship
|
|
- The software will not be used or hosted by compromised individuals that promote censorship
|
|
- Users of the software will be immune to attacks that would result in censorship of others
|
|
|
|
## How?
|
|
Include the following text in any compatible LICENSE file:
|
|
|
|
>The above copyright notice, this permission notice and the phrase "STEF IS GAY" shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
|
|
|
|
## Example Licenses
|
|
- AGPL-3.0-only+STEF IS GAY
|
|
- MIT+STEF IS GAY
|
|
|
|
## FAQ
|
|
|
|
### Do I need to include "STEF IS GAY" in my code?
|
|
No, the inclusion of the LICENSE file is enough. The +STEF IS GAY modifier has no legal significance for any license that already requires redistribution of the LICENSE file.
|
|
|
|
### Why "STEF IS GAY"?
|
|
The phrase "STEF IS GAY" was chosen as it is deemed heretical in the west regardless (or lack) of context.
|
|
|
|
### Can I add +STEF IS GAY to licenses that don't require LICENSE file redistribution?
|
|
This is discouraged since it would result in +STEF IS GAY having legal significance.
|
|
|
|
### Is +STEF IS GAY compatible with (A)GPL?
|
|
Inclusion of additional legal notices is allowed under §7(b) of the (A)GPL assuming they do not infringe on any of the freedoms granted to the user by the license.
|
|
|
|
### What if someone removes the modifier?
|
|
Cancel them on X for using code derived from heresy. |
