Interesting case. What I understand is that the product not only lack of proof that disadvantaged group benefits from it, but mainly it can be used by institutions that are for profit.
GPL v3
IANAL, but can you modify the license so if the user of your code is a for profit institution, then they are licensed under GPL v3. so the institution will have to make their code available for the community to benefit. Something that for profit institutions are highly allergic to (severe CIO rashes, and COO anaphylactic shocks)
And then can you turn back to the IRS and say that because the licensing schema, if a for profit makes use of the code, it forced to be used for the benefit of the community and not just for their profit?
Or maybe there is the need of a GPL v4 where you cannot make profit using the code released?
