So a story about that is they moved it from the EULA to their subscriber agreement (because LiteSpeed was a paid product). Then when that gave them bad press, they moved it somewhere else, and then started to silently impose the rule.

I would not trust LiteSpeed Web Server.

You would have to comb through the post-history, but the forum community, Web Hosting Talk, years ago had many angry people argue over the details of LiteSpeed Web Server.

Lite Speed (LiteSpeed) Web Server is something I avoided, and also recommended against. Their software license had a morality clause, for example, you agree not to use their software on any adult website, or any website promoting LGBTQ+ content.

I believed in an open and free web, and the idea that these people made this alternative to Apache, but then told people they could only use it a certain way, always bothered me. It has been years since I have touched the software, since many people eventually started using Nginx if they were not using Apache.
