John Carmack wishes he'd used the BSD license instead of the GPL

The recent discussions around copilot are a good opportunity to say this: I wish I could have licensed the Id source code releases as BSD. The GPL virality wound up being a net negative, and more value would have come from BSD. My partners would never have gone for it, though. https://t.co/SLrGshV6pX
