+<h2>About</h2>
+<p>This license is weird and it's very much meant to be like this. The reason for that is the usual: boredom. At that
+time I was focused on researching the licensing of my work (although I rarely publish it) and the trends regarding this
+matter. I usually worked with <a href="https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT">MIT</a> or
+<a href="https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html">GPL-2.0</a>. Being myself, I decided to take an
+entirely different approach to the licensing and push it to the extreme, while preserving my own ideas that were most
+likely under heavy influence of some parts of anarchism. That's how the first version was written. Some time later I
+revisited it to be more general and not just software specific.
+<p>The license is aimed at publishers who don't care and publish for people who don't care. As long as you care or are
+forced to care, this license will potentially cause and not cause any problems at the same time, unless the author wants
+to cooperate with you. It's a stupid gimmick, but I would love to see how it would behave in real world.
+<p>As of now (<time>2021-01-06</time>), it's the first time it's published and so far there are no works recorded that
+use this license. In other words, it's not tested in court or even reviewed by actual lawyers (I'm but a mere code
+monkey).
+<p>Please, feel free to contact me with any feedback regarding this license or if you use it anywhere.
