@argv_minus_one That seems like an extreme take on it. Have you heard any companies officially saying something like that? Companies are already setup to handle liability for many things, so if a company is liable for the software they create, and their software requires external free software, why would they now stop contributing to that external free software? They would be liable for it anyway, if their products require it. 1/

Then if an employee wants to contribute to external free software that the company does not use at all then the shouldn't be liable for that software since they don't have any related commercial activity. It seems to me that work outside of commercial activity are exempt.
I worry about a key piece of the F-Droid funding model: we often get grants to improve #FDroid, so the contributors who work on F-Droid pieces under contract might be liable. That's where I'm still unclear
