gollark: (oh, and to clarify a bit, by "binary" I mean the slightly unixy term for executables, not the binary numeral system)
gollark: And that *also* doesn't stop me from just sticking it on my server and not giving you the binary at all.
gollark: Intellectual property law means that you can't, say, freely give someone else a binary I give you. It doesn't mean you have the source code to it so you can make changes, and it doesn't mean I can't make it only work on one computer (based on windows's "hardware ID" or whatever).
gollark: Nope.
gollark: I don't think you can do much about this outside of... I don't know, banning all SaaS and mandating open source code.
