proprietary license

Read a random definition: fill-or-kill order

A quick definition of proprietary license:

A proprietary license is a permission given to someone to use something that would otherwise be illegal. It usually applies to software and restricts the user's ability to copy, distribute, or modify the software. The license can be revoked at any time. It is different from an open-source license, which allows users to freely copy, distribute, and modify the software. A shrink-wrap license is a type of proprietary license that is printed on the outside of a software package and binds the user to the license terms by opening the package.

A more thorough explanation:

A proprietary license is a permission given by the owner of a software or intellectual property to use, copy, or modify their work. This license is usually revocable and restricts the user's ability to distribute or modify the software.

For example, Microsoft Office is a proprietary software that requires a license to use. The license agreement restricts the user from copying or distributing the software to others. Another example is the BSD license, which allows users to incorporate the source code into proprietary products as long as the original creator's name is not used to endorse or promote the products without permission.

Proprietary licenses are different from open-source licenses, which allow users to copy, distribute, and modify the software freely.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
