    The fact that you have 38 upvotes with such an incorrect statement is mind boggling.

    This is how politics works I supposed. Write something that sounds plausible but is completely incorrect, inaccurate or completely fabricated and stupid people applaud and follow.

      Its ok to be unable to read, but dont make that other peoples problem.

      https://github.com/ErikMcClure/bad-licenses/blob/master/hot-potato-license

      This is copied from V2 but same thing:

      All rights reserved by the last person to commit a change to this repository,

      No explanation needed

      except for the right to commit changes to this repository,

      Also no explanation needed

      which is hereby granted to all inhabitants of the Milky Way Galaxy for the purpose of committing changes to this repository.

      This refers to the previous section meaning everyone can make commits to the repository except for the person excluded by that same section

        They should’ve said “all other inhabitants” to remove the ambiguity.

        A right not being reserved does not mean it is waived, only that it is not exclusive. The last person to commit still has the right to commit, as does everyone else.
