Congratulations, you clearly found your perfect license. Since you clearly hate being given the right to copy, modify and redistribute (as in the GPL), have fun using a license that forbids modification, and only give you max 1 backup copy.

Oh wait, you want to make modifications, and then sue people who then dare to copy, modify or redistribute your version? Pity you can't use that GPL compatible Apache 2 licensed code. Better use that non-compliant free commercial license instead.

Uhm, what?

To me, perfect licences are: BSD, MIT, Apache2, WTFPL

I like copy middle far far better than copy right or copy left.

My entire comment was about how bad the MS free commercial license was and how I wished it was a real FOSS license. There was a tangent in there about hating the copy-virus of the GPL, but that was an aside.

If you want to comment about how bad the MS free commercial license is, you should not bundle it with your desire to redistribute other peoples software and then sue your users if they dare to do the same by copy, modify or redistribute your version.

It takes away from your main arguments and distracts.
