> A license for developers who write open source code to make the world a better place

> As developers we can no longer close our eyes to the fact that open source code is being used by individuals and organizations to the detriment of our society.

> The Do No Harm License is for developers that agree in general with the principles of open source software, but are uncomfortable with their software being used as part of efforts to destroy lives, our environment and our future.

> In short, developers who use this license want their code to contribute to a just world for all.

> A licence for using software for good (cache)

Oh, and most of the 2018 thoughts.
