Proposing a copyleft license for Snapchain We need to release Snapchain under an open source license for people to be able to use the code safely. We're proposing using GPL v3, which is a copy left license. This means that you can use, modify and redistribute it freely as long as any changes are also made public and available to all.

What do you want to allow, encourage and prevent? At a very high level, I think that a permissive license is better, especially for something like a social network where value comes mostly from network effects. I get the MySQL/AWS example, but really, is this a pragmatic risk? If amazon or google wanted to run something like snapchain on demand for my enterprise social network, so what? And if the license blocks them, will they just cave, or build something from scratch?

I like OP's approach. And I think it's very relevant to snapchain. https://www.optimism.io/blog/introducing-the-law-of-chains
