@zotz thinking of limiting this strictly to 'Derived Works' (cf. !CC licenses); not sure if addresses all (or any) of your concern though. -

well, we limit all we can within the law. some laws say you can't. any law says we can't take back all licenses we are not paid for? -

I am not sure this is a good idea though. How could it be abused by an evil actor? -

do I misread? can damages ever be collected despite 14?oops replying with the wrong assumed context. that goes for 14. -

in context: I have been calling for a stronger copyleft for #BYSA for a good while now. Do not want to see extra protection given away. -

@zotz if #copyleft-next not #GPL compatible anti-license-proliferationist arguments become a bit stronger. -

@zotz local law may limit reach of 14. Is about user suing upstream distributor for damages. Standard in free and proprietary-COTS licenses. -

I am speaking for what happens if they successfully sue for damages. Lose license to all my works they have not paid me for. ??? -

#copyleft licenses do have this drawback. Making them outward compatible to counteract opens the weakest of all weakness though.
