    Isn’t ActivityPub just an application protocol? To my knowledge there’s no ActivityPub inc. licensing the usage of the protocol or anything like that. A web protocol is just a series of guidelines everyone has agreed on following, you can’t attach terms and conditions to it.

        Eh, it still wouldn’t be “free software” at that point. “Free” also means freedom to send your data to Meta if you want to.
