@E_Mondragon Perfect. Thanks. ♥️

FWIW. Many open science folks pedantically insist on CC-BY for Open Access. And that's just silly. This is a good illustration where departure from Free and Open Source Software or Free Knowledge ideals is perfectly fine.
As we think about what ethical end-to-end-open AI could or should be, lots of reimagining required!
(No need to give up on decades of #FOSS and #FreeKnowledge idealism but open mind is necessary.)

Are there any #freedomRespecting #whois servers/databases?
The https://whois.radb.net one is good but it seems to not feature #AsiaPacific ASNs for some strange reason.
In a global community, we need those too.
