First I would like to say I didn't ever use VEM so I could care less about this, however I am curious: all addons are free, all addon are in fact "open-source" in a way (I mean you have total access to view the source code). If VEM dude breaks the license what will happen? DBM would sue VEM (how much money would DBM willing to pay a lawyer)? How much would VEM had to pay DBM for breaking a free program license? Obviously I could do the same analysis from VEM pov, it the addons are free why break a license to make free stuff?

I don't have any intention of breaking any license neither I think they should be ignored, just curious how this works in the real world or if it is just an illusion of property. Imo unless you can make money or put people in jail because they broke your license on a free program then it is just a joke to put any license to begin with.

I for example, live in Brazil and I can't see FBI coming after me because I broke an addon license.
