I would like to make it explicit that only flesh and blood individuals should have access to freedom 0. These licenses are a step in a direction closer to what I would like to see, but aren't quite there yet.

If you as a person want to run software xyz and try to make money off of it, go ahead. As soon as you open a limited company to reduce your exposure you should be hit with paying license fees.

I don't get the hate for the licenses that try to remove freedom 0 for corporations. At work I suggest horrible propitiatory software solutions all the time because it doesn't matter how locked down the stack is.

So long as it has a ROI of >3% over the fixed and running costs it's a good solution.

No one is harmed by human first open source software, other than a legal fictions bottom line.
