    Wiser alternative:

    Do whatever you like with the original work, just don’t be a dick.

      nah, than ibm will annoy you, that they need a special license that allows them to be a dick while using your code.

      just like they asked the JSLint guys to use JSLint for evil.

      code that needs a license, but i really don’t care what you do with it gets a wftpl.

        The WTFPL is risky in certain jurisdictions, as it does not have a NO WARRANTY clause.

          technicaly correct, and i am no lawyer, but i can’t see how in the world i owe anyone a warranty that loads code on their machines, compiles it and uses it, all without any input by me.

          everything that i intend to be more than throw away code, that lives for whatever reason in a public repo gets either an MIT or an gplv3 license.
