@tobybot so are legally able to provide legal council and understand discrimination law? I need to understand your background before I simply take your word. And to state it is not a good question makes me doubt your credibility as all questions are good.
The fact you try to downgrade a person because you simply disagree is inconsiderate and intolerant.

This feels like the "how can you say you're tolerant if you don't tolerate the intolerant" argument (which is utter nonsense).
Even so: this is by definition a conditionally open source license, right? The gist of the thing is "you're free to use this if you aren't doing X,Y,Z." That's the point. Trying to frame it as discriminatory is wrongheaded at least, disingenuous at worst.

@tobybot your response did not answer my question or provide clarification about the legality of this license.

I was trying to semi-politely say it's not a good question and not an actual legal risk.

It's a good question. Typically anti-discrimination law protects individuals rather than organisations though so seems like it wouldn't be a concern?
