    @marsidesino @alphabettes is the font licensing mess database open-source or available? For example, I’m interested in reading all ePub licenses and comparing licenses across countries / regions. A public google sheets, airtable, or notion page would be very cool!

    @marsidesino @alphabettes I think the answer to these problems for proprietary fonts will be NFTs with all the complex licencing logic built-in. Plus you get real scarcity instead of legally enforced artificial scarcity.
