I find it very difficult to comprehend that foss software is used in warfare and is killing people. But adding no military usage in a license would violate the four freedoms

@os_sci@mastodon.social I guess not all problems can be solved with licenses. Given how major militaries disregard international law, I don't think they care too much about copyright infringement. Especially if they can just keep it "top secret" for a long time.
But it's again an argument for copyleft I think, because at least in principle you can force them to open up the software. And it might be possible to target companies selling military equipment or software.
