A few people pointed out that many [R]ust projects were MIT licensed and since then I indeed have seen MIT licensed projects everywhere in Rust. Then I found the link of this post and it looks like MIT was by far the most popular license in all of opensource in 2023.
Any ideas why?
There’s a GPL compliance lawsuit going on where they’re suing as a user under contract law, instead of as the copyright holder. Perhaps you can say the GPL is as good as anyone’s lawyers, in the near future.
