    And if you find one of my github projects that will cause a user to violate a local law, kindly file an issue and I’ll update the README.md / consider taking it down until the issue is fixed.

    100% your prerogative.

      Nope, it’s my moral, ethical, and social obligation as a person, my professional obligation as a professional software developer, and if I had bothered to file the paper work for my engineering license, would also be my legal obligation as an engineer.

        Again, 100% your prerogative. No one is forced to use any of your software. The only time you must fix it is if you have a contract that outlines those conditions or you are selling licenses to customers in the EU.

          Again, you are narrowing the definition of “obligation” to just legal and contractual.

          If you just want to think about yourself and how you interact with the world through legal and contractual terms, good luck, it will be hard and miserable and you will be disliked. Otherwise you do have moral, ethical, and social obligations for everything you put into society.
