I like the idea a lot but my understanding is that they're unenforceable. I'd go with one of those if I thought they worked, though.
AFAIK it's just something that hasn't been tested, but that goes for basically all digital "shrinkwrap contracts" from your iTunes EULA to the license on your github repo. Good luck being the first person to test it if you're not a major corporation, though.
Could be! I think even having a source available closed license is probably difficult to enforce for the same reason: corporate law is mostly about who has a pile of cash to burn and that's not me lol
