Charles Hoskinson: Article 604 of the CLARITY Act May Hinder Open-Source Innovation

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, when discussing the deletion of Article 604 of the CLARITY Act, stated that this provision could subject open-source developers to long-term legal liability for others' use of their code. He pointed out that after developers release open-source software, even if others subsequently misuse the code without permission, the developers could still be held accountable indefinitely, calling this a serious threat to the open-source innovation environment.
