On: Google Cloud Platform Launches Northern Virginia Region

Did anything ever come of that movement to write an open source software license like "Anyone can use this, except the NSA"? It was a briefly-popular idea in 2013 or so.

Good luck enforcing that or finding out if the NSA is using your software. It's just a silly idea.

Probably, though it came about after finding out the NSA uses Sinatra, so it's not entirely impossible.

OCB has an explicit "no military use" license. It caused huge headaches for e.g. openssl; they had to get a special exemption.

See also the JSON license.

It is a contradiction of terms. An open source license cannot exclude any groups, else it is not open source.
