Comment on Show HN: Pooshit – Sync local code to remote Docker containersparent

I can't remember what the package was, but when I was working for "large bank", one of the npm dependencies we wanted to use had a licence file that just said 'Do whatever the fuck you want'.

Legal came back saying that it was "highly unorthodox, but approved for use"

That’s amazing. I’d really like to steal that, but not being a lawyer, I’m not sure how viable it is as an actual license.

FSF has approved it, OSI has not. Make of that what you will. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WTFPL

Notes from OSI rejection board meeting

It's no different from dedication to the public domain.
