No, thanks. I don’t want to see “Users from North Korea, Syria and Iran are not allowed to use this Project” I am already banned from half of the Internet due to sanctions against the asshole leaders of my country. And GitLab has already banned Iranian IP addresses. This license will not stop those big bad organizations or governments, but the average citizen from accessing the projects. I know it is not the purpose of the license to prohibit the citizens of hateful regimes to use the projects, but I can’t be optimistic about the effect it might have on people living under tyrannical regimes.

Install Telegram from the official website. The google play version has copyright restrictions.

Idk. I haven’t used forks or unofficial clients. But Spotify download bots would show a copyright restriction pop up on the google play version while in the version downloaded from the official website I could use the bots with no problem.

Don’t get me started on Karma farming bots. A Karma system does more harm than good.
