@argv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.org @Nine@chitter.xyz @ifixcoinops@retro.social huh, Google released it under BSD-3-clause with an additional patent use license grant for any relevant patents they own so that's surprising

@lunareclipse@snug.moe The lawsuits are about patents Google does *not* own. It's not like copyright, where the thing belongs to whoever made it. Patents allow somebody you've never heard of to come out of the woodwork and claim ownership of your whole idea. @Nine@chitter.xyz @ifixcoinops@retro.social
