Blockstack Supportive Open Source License

Currently, I am publishing my apps using MIT license.
I was wondering whether there is a concept of licenses that allow to use and modify the code only as long as the resulting product does not transfer data to non-user owned servers. Any ideas?

Wow, this is one of the best generative question I ever saw on this platform. Let’s modify MIT and create a license for decentralized apps!. @muneeb @jude any opinion?

Sounds like GPLv3 + an addendum. Keeps it open source & forced decentralized.

Although it also seems like it would be hard to enforce… dunno. Interesting idea though.
