No, the Pangu Model License Agreement Version 1.0 is not a free software license. It imposes significant restrictions, such as prohibiting use within the European Union (Section 3) and requiring attribution (Section 4.2), which conflict with the principles of free software licenses like the GNU GPL or Open Source Definition. The non-transferable clause (Section 2) and indemnity requirement (Section 7) further deviate from standard free software terms.

🔥 "Open Model"? More Like "Openly Restrictive"! 🔥

Huawei calls Pangu Pro MoE an "open model"? That’s like calling a locked door an "open invitation." Let’s break down the brilliant "openness" here:

• "No EU Allowed!" (Section 3) – Because nothing says "open" like banning entire continents. GDPR too scary for you, Huawei?
• "Powered by Pangu" or GTFO (Section 4.2) – Mandatory branding? Real open-source models don’t force you to be a walking billboard.
• Non-transferable license (Section 2) – Can’t pass it on? So much for community sharing.
• Indemnify Huawei for your use (Section 7) – If anything goes wrong, you pay, not them. How generous!

This isn’t an "open model"—it’s a marketing stunt wrapped in proprietary chains. True open-source (Apache, MIT, GPL) doesn’t come with geographic bans, forced attribution, and legal traps.

Huawei, either commit to real openness or stop insulting the FOSS community with this pretend-free nonsense. 🚮
