encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of

software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
|
||||||
|
The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
|
||||||
|
letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
|
||||||
|
source code to the public.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
|
The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
|
||||||
(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
|
ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available

||||||

|
to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
|
||||||
|
provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
|
||||||
|
users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
|
||||||
|
a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
|
||||||
|
code of the modified version.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
|
An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
|
||||||
that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
|
published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
|
||||||
authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
|
a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
|
||||||
changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to

|
this license.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
|
|
||||||
modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
|
|
||||||
can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
|
|
||||||
protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
|
|
||||||
pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
|
|
||||||
use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
|
|
||||||
have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
|
|
||||||
products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
|
|
||||||
stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
|
|
||||||
of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
|
|
||||||
States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
|
|
||||||
software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
|
|
||||||
avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
|
|
||||||
make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
|
|
||||||
patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
