It seems to be at about 7:51 that he starts talking about the problems he sees with current open source. Here's a link to that point in the video [1].

Around 12:47 is where he finishes that and concludes we cannot fix open source, and talks about "Post Open". Here's a link to that point in the video [2].

> a permissive licence that effectively prevents use by megacorps

_Why_ do mega corps like Google and Intel refuse to use it? There's nothing on Wikipedia [0], and the license is extremely short and clear.

From your description I expected a license that explicitly denies permissions for certain purposes or types of companies. It's very much the opposite of that! :)

Having spent 20 years in the film industry (see https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0673302/), I am well aware of your concern. The demand is for 1% of end-user revenue collected, through all entities. This is to use all Post Open software, not just one program. Obviously this is not going to gain immediate acceptance by many companies. But if the collection gets large enough, there may be a tipping point.
