The E-1.0 PPL License.
Copycenter is a licensing model that uses copyright to preserve user autonomy while keeping all of the share alike principles of copyleft. It gives broad rights to use, modify, and share the Software, whilst prohibiting the addition or enforcement of any and all systems that compromise anonymity, restrict expression, or impose identity‑linked compliance upon the User. Copycenter licenses ensure that all recipients receive the same freedoms, and that no downstream User is subjected to Privacy Threats or Filtering requirements as a condition of use.
We make no warranties under this Agreement. Any information disclosed under this Agreement is provided “AS IS,” and without any warranty, whether express or implied.
By using, modifying, or distributing the Software, you accept these Terms. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use complies with the laws of your jurisdiction. The authors disclaim any responsibility for your legal obligations.
This License may be applied alongside or in addition to other licenses, except where those licenses explicitly prohibit additional terms (e.g., the GNU General Public License).
If any provision of this License is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be interpreted to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
The Software does not implement Privacy Threats or Filtering of any kind. If you are in a country that requires any of these, you are not permitted to use the Software. If you choose to use the Software despite such laws, you do so without permission and at your own risk, and the authors disclaim all responsibility for any legal obligations arising from the user’s jurisdiction.
If you distribute copies of the Software, modified or otherwise, and whether gratis or for a fee, you must give proper attribution to all Contributor(s) unless explicitly requested otherwise. You must also give the recipients all the rights that you have, and must ensure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
If the Software includes a “NOTICE” file as part of its distribution, any copies you distribute must include a readable copy of the notices contained in that NOTICE file, except for notices that do not pertain to any part of the Software you are distributing. You may add your own notices to the NOTICE file, provided that such additions do not modify or remove existing notices.

The purpose of this License is to preserve user autonomy, anonymity, and freedom of expression by prohibiting the addition or enforcement of surveillance, identity‑linked compliance, or filtering systems.
