It would seem to me that a pressure campaign to extend existing OS licenses to include a BDS license has the potential to see adoption among the more progressive tech-bros and at least significantly inconvenience tech firms in occupied Palestine. I did some (admittedly very spotty) research and couldn't find anything.

IANAL, and I'm also not a lawyer, so I won't try to model language, but I'm kinda surprised that I couldn't find a pre-existing example.

    The handful of organizations which won’t sell out (like the FSF) are run by libs who are true believers in “the freedom to use the software for any purpose.”

    I feel like this one is easily overturned as a principle by saying, 'you can't commit genocide using this code' and forcing them to refuse to accept that term and take all the associated shit.

      No argument there. This "I don't agree with Hitler's systematized genocide, but by god he has the right to use those IBM computers however he wishes" shit needs to be savagely ridiculed.
