Legal licensing

For software, I recommend the GNU General Public License 3.0 for Open Source projects that don't borrow from other projects.

Legal knowledge

I have self-taught myself over the past 5 years knowledge of the legal system, mostly for protecting works, and self-publishing software. I used to have copyright on the term SeanWallaWalla, but as of 2019, I have switched it to Copyleft.

I only self-taught myself the legal system to publish software and gain ownership of it, but then I don't do anything else on that. For my software, I want to be able to have credit as the creator.

For my software, I usually publish it under the GNU GPL 3.0, but sometimes I have to dual-license with other licenses such as the Apache license 2.0 (when working with things like Swift and Blockly) and so on with other languages and their licenses.

I don't have as much legal knowledge as a lawyer, and it is one of my very basic skills.

My knowledge on law covers licensing, ownership, crimininal law, and the United States court and branch system

Legal diclaimer

Please note that I am not a lawyer, nor am I capable of being one, as I don't have a degree in law. I can help with the most basic of legal issues, but not advanced ones. If you are looking for a lawyer, I am not your guy.
