Wiser alternative:

Do whatever you like with the original work, just don't be a dick.

nah, than ibm will annoy you, that they need a special license that allows them to be a dick while using your code.

just like they asked the JSLint guys to use JSLint for evil.

code that needs a license, but i really don't care what you do with it gets a wftpl.

Do this specifically so a judge has to rule if someone is being a dick or not. File amicus briefs on the definition of being a dick. Assemble a jury of peers to decide if the defendants are being a dick. Appeal to the supreme court to rule if the court erred in their judgement of the dickishness at question in this matter.
