I appreciate you disclose the potential source of bias up
front. However, if the license state ``you can freely distribyute'',
buyt they say prvately you should not, or we shall take the whole
ball of wax and walk away, are they truly not lying?

a) a license change can not do away with fair use, it takes an
act of congress, and perhaps a constitutional amendment to that
here in the US.
b) bullshit. If that is what they wanted, they could have said
so in the license.
Ove> But if you really want to commit such controversy
Commit a contoversy? What controversy? One is merely folowing
the license on the software.
