FYI A list moderator has for more than a decade taken on the responsibility of ensuring non-subscribed posters receive a redirected copy of answers where they were not cc'd. So Heather did get a copy of Francis's reply.

Open Source Apache License
Yes I'm writing you to inquire about distribution of said license to unknowing parties/devices. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I do believe that I read that is considered mis use of the license. This license has been installed on multiple devices of mine on occasions usually with more attached. They are using my private information, locking me out of my internet, crashing my devices, copying my password, looking through my history, sending packages to my phone, breaching my banks, credit, getting my call and message, changing my passwords, forwaring my mail. with a lot more damage. They are using some type business because my phone says to speak to my administration I don't have one. Could you please help correcting this issue please? Thank you for your time Heather Jordan 7046786433
