Sure, but Ethical Software isn't Open Source. That's what we keep
telling you. If you want to prevent "unethical" entities from using your
software, you are separating yourself from the Open Source community.
I want to emphasize that there is nothing wrong with wanting to insist
on ethical use of your software. *Nothing* wrong with that. But it's not
Open Source.
