| <h3>Hall of Shame!!!</h3> |
| |
| The following products and/or projects appear to use BusyBox, but do not appear |
| to release source code as required by the BusyBox license. This is a violation |
| of the law! The distributors of these products are invited to contact <a href= |
| "mailto:andersen@codepoet.org">Erik Andersen</a> if they have any confusion as |
| to what is needed to bring their products into compliance, or if they have |
| already brought their product into compliance and wish to be removed from the |
| Hall of Shame. |
| |
| <p> |
| |
| Complying with the Busybox license is easy and completely free, so the |
| companies listed below should be ashamed of themselves. Furthermore, each |
| product listed here is subject to being legally ordered to cease and desist |
| distribution for violation of copyright law, and the distributor of each |
| product is subject to being sued for statutory copyright infringement damages |
| plus legal fees. Nobody wants to be sued, and <a |
| href="mailto:andersen@codepoet.org">Erik</a> certainly has better things to do |
| than sue people. But he will sue if forced to do so to maintain compliance. |
| Do everyone a favor and don't break the law -- if you use busybox, comply with |
| the busybox license by releasing the source code with your product. |
