💫 Licensing changes (again) 💫

Version 2.1 was released under GNU General Public License v3.0, which is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free software for all its users.

Version 2.2 is released under BSD 3-Clause License, which is a permissive license that prohibits others from using the name of the copyright holder or its contributors to promote derived products without written consent.

This change removes source code disclosure requirement 🕵️

❌ Breaking changes ❌

❌ Severity levels ❌

Version 2.1 (before) Version 2.2 (now)
BLOCKER Critical
CRITICAL High
MAJOR Medium
MINOR Low
INFO Info

⚠️ Please update your custom rules and CLI args to reflect these changes ⚠️

Instead of

use

whispers -s Critical dir/or/file
