--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
That seems like a very weird decision on the part of the FSF and OSI. Public
Domain is the freest license of all since anyone can do anything they want with
it; there are zero restrictions, not even the restriction of copyleft licenses
that are commonly considered free.

I have a feeling that the question of "freedom to be used in nonfree software
in the future vs restricted in order to preserve freedom forever" is a highly
political topic and there is 0% chance of minds being changed upstream.

Meanwhile, for something with a public domain license, Discover colors the
license name in orange and shows the "risks of proprietary software" sheet,
which are objectively the wrong things to do. Software that incorporates public
domain imagery will get branded here.

Can we reconsider and add some special-casing in Discover?
