When Lerna changed their license to forbid usage from ICE collaborators a lot of people got angry because it was no longer free software" and was "mixing politics and sofrware". Big fuck you to those people. Would love to see a more formalized version of that license.

Who is going to be authority that decides what's moral and what's not? Eg Australia is a horrible polluter and operator of detention camps for refugees. Should we include Australian government in the list? What about Hong Kong or Russia who are violently suppressing dissent?

You have the right to apply any restrictions you want to your own software

I just question the ethicality of applying it to ICE and ignoring any other bad things happening.

I don't find the argument of there being other bad things to be very compelling. Maybe those should be included, it's what I tried to allude to with "formalized license" in my first tweet.
