However, because a program that is in the public domain has no copyright (and can therefore have no license), you cannot technically disclaim warranty. Well, you can, but you do not have the option of saying, "If you do not accept the fact there is no warranty, you cannot use the program", as in the GPL, MIT, BSD, Apache, or other licenses. -- Brian M.
