      Oh no you lost respect because someone use the wrong word. My day is ruined that you lose respect. How will the world continue because jet@hackertalks.com haves lost respect. Also they abused it because in the Eula you agree not to use their software in this manner. So they improperly used this software to exfiltrate data. I haven’t seen you write your own articles either. Sorry let me not abuse you too much.

        https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/blob/main/LICENSE

        The license does not restrict use of a file transfer protocol for file transfer. In fact it’s the Mozilla public license. It’s very permissive

        Got to admit, your comment matches your username, kudos

          The license clearly does not apply. Nice try though. I mean it does take some mental work to think synchthing permits this type of abuse. Wait is that too disrespectful?

            If the license the code is published with doesn’t apply, what license would apply?
