# The Pirate-only PROPRIETRY License
## What the hell is this repo ??
It contains the Pirate-only license, a license file that disallow any kind of action possible on the content it is applied to
## So ... I can't use your sotware ?
You are *not allowed* to which is a big nuance, you can also just not care and ignore the license
## Ok but why ?
To troll corporations and FOSS bros, the license don't lock anything down, it is just a piece of paper (or some words on a sreen)
It is a protest against the concept of intelectual property as a whole, we do not believe that data can be locked down, a license can only lock away the people who care too much about it
Some people say Free Software and Open Source is an anti-capitalist, anti-copyright thing, it cannot be further from the truth, FOSS licenses acknowledge the concept of IP and abide by its rules, most FOSS were made by and mostly profit to big corporations
## Will I get sued for using software under that license
I don't care enough and people who use that license probably don't care either, this statement has no legal meaning and you still are disallowed from using the software
## What do you hope to accomplish with this ??
Nothing serious
Maybe we could start a new movement of truly anti-capitalist anti-copyright softwares ?
## This is just ridiculous
Yea
But anything happening in the world right now ain't any less ridiculous
