So, from gbatemp's rules:
This mean it is applicable to some software such as the tx sx os.
However, it seems like this rule isn't truly applied for open source software. Most of them in hacking scenes uses the gpl v2 or v3.
Even tho it is open source code, license exist for it. And the gpl is known to permit software distribution if:
a: proper copyright notices were added
b: forked software may stay on the open source domain (and still have the gpl license)
This is appliable to other license, but the gpl is probably the biggest one.
My main question, are open source code treated the same? And what would be considered as a violation? Answer is already known for the first question ( because of some things certain scenes, you may easily notice that it is not).
How will open source code be treated in this case?
...this includes (but is NOT limited to) - licensed and copyrighted software, code, movies, music, video games, magazines, comics, e-books, television shows, illegal torrents, etc. These rules also account for "keygens" and "cracks" including how to obtain, apply or install them.
