Likewise - at first I was prepared for this to be another weird permutation of MIT/BSD or something but once I got further into the article I understood the author's point (and agreed!) about claiming (at least a symbolic) right of refusal to allow one's work to be used for ill.

I don't know how enforceable that becomes, and I know that people the author refers to as dogmatists may be quick to point out the flaws (on some level it reminds me of pharmacists who refuse to dispense medications on personal grounds - eg, contraceptives or diabetic supplies to people they suspect of drug use).

But I think the conversation is valuable - there is a moral/ethical dilemma for many of us who truly love computing, when faced with a job market that consists largely of For-Profit Corporations And Governments Doing Bad Things (obviously this is personal and relative).
