     @dushman Have you considered not ODing on proprietary drugs?

     @cine There is no such things as "GPL", there is the GPLv1, GPLv2 and GPLv3.
     
     Those are copyright licenses, so they cannot be applied to a manufacturing process, or even the list of manufacturing steps, as recipes don't fall under copyright (you could add something creative to a recipe to make it fall under copyright, but someone could just go and delete anything creative to leave a non-creative sequence of steps to follow).
     
     The only thing that can really restrict a manufacturing process is a patent, so you can just leave it unpatented and you won't need to bother coming up with a free patent license.

     @Suiseiseki @dushman It's okay as long as I synthesize the drug myself then? Can GPL be applied to manufacturing processes? :thinkbird:

     @cine I failed a high-quality autism test, so confirmed not autistic.
     
     While the GPLv1 isn't really a thing anymore, licensing GPLv2-only and GPLv3-only are still far too common - thus it's important to mention which license you are actually referring to.
     
     It would be great if everyone just licensed GPLv2-or-later or GPLv3-or-later and if that was the case you could just write "GPL", alas so many people hate freedom that they choose to license GPLv2-only and never enforce their license (a proprietary license is ineffective against the GPLv3, as such software instantly gets discarded, but licensing GPLv2-only prevents combination with GPLv3-or-later software, but is is a free license, so people don't discard such).

     Are you perhaps autistic?

     @gentoobro "The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns."
     
     The FSF will not "get captured" and even if it somehow does, that will be the Proprietary Software Foundation and not the FSF and then beyond that, any proprietary license is not "similar in spirit".
     
     If you has misplaced distrust, please allocate a proxy; "If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy’s public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the Program."

     I never use "or later" because then you're fucked if and when the FSF gets captured.

     @Zergling_man That would infringe freedom 0, so therefore that would not be similar in spirit.

     @gentoobro The FBI doesn't have jurisdiction and I don't even have 100TB of hard drives, so I'm not sure how they'll do that.

     Anyone can be captured. The FBI shows up to your house and tells you what to do if you don't want them to find 100TB of Illegal Content(TM) on your hard drive.
