With pretty much every other type of licence, if someone is doing bad things, you can terminate the licence. If I choose to use a licence where I can’t do it, like it or not, it’s effectively the same as me volunteering for them. </p><p>While you can’t stop someone using software by just revoking a licence, there is a world of difference between being an accomplice and having your work illegally used against your permission. And you in turn change their stance to criminal, against the rule of law and corporate interests, which for a certain type of baddie fights against their image.</p><p>Corporations use software with and enter into revocable agreements all the time. Every single one of them are, from sales contracts to employment contracts. Eternal, globally sublicensable, transferable, irrevocable are freakishly rare terms even on their own, let alone all together.</p>
