Curl, the language/environment/markup language...(Spanish Civil War)...

You work at/for Curl, so you're biased :-)

A far more pernicious part of the license is that you must agree to
allow curl to send valuable demographic (and other?) data about people
visiting your curled website. You agree that this is done
automatically at whatever time the curl program wants to do this as
far as I can tell.

Marketing companies pay the likes of grocery stores for this sort of
information about product sales etc., why should you all be any
different?
