PALIMPSEST PHILOSOPHICAL OVERLAY (NON-BINDING)
71+
================================================================================
72+
73+
This project encourages (but does not legally require) adherence to the
74+
principles of the Palimpsest License - a framework for consent-based digital
75+
interaction and the future web.
76+
77+
Core Principles (Encouraged):
78+
- Respect for emotional and creative lineage
79+
- Transparent AI training practices with explicit consent
80+
- Preservation of metadata and attribution
81+
- Protection of narrative intent and cultural context
82+
83+
The Palimpsest principles represent our vision for a consent-based internet.
84+
While not legally binding for use of this software, we encourage all users
85+
and contributors to familiarize themselves with these principles.
