The biggest problem with such a clause is that it is hard to define "evil", even if it seems clear to you. Some people think that abortion is evil, so are abortion clinics banned from Json? What about the military and weapon manufacturers? Killing is evil, but you all know how the discourse about the military as national heroes that can't be evil in the US goes. What about a service like X - is it evil? Can you define "evil" for a surveillance tool that brands itself as ad tech?

The clause also states that the product MUST be used for Good, which is a higher bar. I'd imagine most things JSON is used for are fairly morally neutral.

From my point of view, JavaScript is evil.

Ask every single person what is the definition of evil and merge all the answers into one definition

That'd be all the things.

The law is basically this, it’s why nearly everyone hates the government.

[-] frayedpickles@lemmy.cafe 3 points 3 days ago

Yeah I would imagine this is the point

Every person should act according to their own morals.

There would be so much violence in the world if they did.

Possibly, I just gave solution to those terms of conduct. Because everyone has other definition of what is evil, to comply they need to follow their morals.
