this is FreeAssembly, a non-toxic design, programming, and art collective. post your share-alike (CC SA, GPL, BSD, or similar) projects here! collaboration is welcome, and mutual education is too.

I've been trying to background-ponder what measures could work for this sort of thing. classical hindrance methods such as code obfuscation are counterproductive to debugging and dev work, and strongly tying code to its runtime has other problematic implications. licensing alone isn't sufficient because you need the ability to actually do something from those terms (whether lawyers or ...), and doubly so because these fucking awful human beings do not actually care and will tread over any license terms as long as they benefit, and will use power to defend their actions.

wish I had more fucking spoons to research this shit properly :|
