@KatieMFritz We'll chat about this tomorrow, but I wanted to drop in some highlights.

This change uses a more specific version of the MIT licenses called the Hippocratic license. The gist of this new license is that it discourages anyone who violates human rights (according to the UN definition) from using the software. It's undergone legal review and I've annotated the changes according to the documentation at firstdonoharm.dev.

@chrisvfritz Would you mind taking a look at this well and give or deny your blessing? I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

@KatieMFritz I think this PR's got the green light! Do you mind completing the review when you have time? 😁
