Description

"All rights reserved." within a free software license is confusing, I suggest removing this sentence.

It does not appear in the MIT license spdx template.

You can also check populare repositories using the MIT license: none of them use such a sentence.

Open the repository's LICENCE file and compare the relevant wording with the linked SPDX MIT license template. Done means removing the sentence "All rights reserved." from LICENCE while leaving the rest of the license intact.
