The Hidden Risk
Even the most popular open source licences can introduce legal and operational risks.
MIT
Permissive, but attribution is mandatory. Miss it, and you're in breach.
APACHE 2.0
Includes a patent clause. Infringe it, and you lose the right to use the code.
GPL v3
Copyleft licence. Must open source your own code if improperly combined.
BSD 3-Clause
Requires careful tracking of attribution and endorsement rules.
