The license does not restrict use of a file transfer protocol for file transfer. In fact it's the Mozilla public license. It's very permissive
Got to admit, your comment matches your username, kudos
The license clearly does not apply. Nice try though. I mean it does take some mental work to think synchthing permits this type of abuse. Wait is that too disrespectful?
If the license the code is published with doesn't apply, what license would apply?
