@willstaffordparsons Are there any examples of this license being used by anyone other than your own personal projects?

For that matter, reviewing the only link you provided for example projects at https://eightomic.com, the "Terms" linked there are entirely different, and the handful of "Products" listed there don't match the license that was submitted above. Do you have any examples of any use of this license in the wild?
