Description

**License Name**
The full name of the license, preferably as provided by the original authors.
SEGV

**License Homepage URL**
The primary and/or most reliable URL that contains the text of this license and/or information about it. This is ideally a web page dedicated to the license, but it may also be a source file that contains the license text.

https://github.com/mrusme/cloudcash/blob/master/LICENSE

See also https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com/segv/

**Reference URLs**
Optionally provide URLs that contain references to the license.

**License Notes**
Optionally describe any aspects of the license that deserve special attention.

@mrusme switched from GPL to this new license. I have not dived into the details yet, but it looks like a proprietary license of sorts from a quick glance.

PS: the license states:

The SEGV License is adapted from the Hippocratic License, Version 3.0
(https://firstdonoharm.dev), published by the Organization for Ethical Source,
with modified and additional terms. The SEGV License is not associated with or
endorsed by the Organization for Ethical Source. This Appendix is not part of
the terms and conditions of this License.
