WTFPL and licenses. Also open source.
So, never posted a blog before.
Although I have never written any code that is generally useful, I am a strong advocate of open source.
Although technology needs to be proprietary in some very specific circumstances, generally something that is free should also be open.
The general exception to this is websites. It is also a hot topic of which is the best license to go with, GPL, GNU, MIT. All of those limit freedom, although most of the time (sponsorships, etc.) you may want to use one of the former. However, I don't think that simple code (let's use the MLPF Firefox extension I am doing for example) should have such restrictions. As such, I hope to license it under "WTFPL" (if you could even call it a license) for very simple use on other IPS forums.
Were I ever to make a game, or other program; I would encourage others to "hack" or modify it. With the sole exception of multiplayer, and even multiplayer in some cases.. A good example of this is The Elder Scrolls.
