Let me check with some folks on that. I'd be interested in others'
opinions, too.

If it were a code license, that's an obvious field of use restriction,
which means we wouldn't accept it. Historically, we've permitted
non-modification content licenses. Given the relatively narrow
restriction here, I'm inclined to except it, too. After all, we *use*
Unsplash photos around the project all the time: in Fedora Magazine,
on the Flock website, etc.
