   @marcan @flameeyes (i.e. there is a good reason that even the shortest open source licenses bother spending the wording on granting you permission use the software)

     @marcan @flameeyes n.b. the "copyright license" distinction you make is not one that every legal system makes. Most European legal systems do not distinguish between "copyright licenses" and contracts.
     
     It is not settled case law but in many legal systems it's probable that you do not have a legal right to run any piece of software without agreeing to the covering license agreement
