## [Case 171](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/171)

> **Proposal**

> > _Features of the service are available under a free software and/or open source license_

> **Old name**

> > _Features of the service are made available under a free software license_

## Reasoning

I believe restricting this to free software licenses alone is no longer needed as a lot of open source licenses are very permissive aswell (e.g. MIT).

Also, we handle the difference between open source and free software very sloppily in other cases, and we should correct that.

Thoughts?

Since there are currently no objections, I’ll rename the Case.
