It was also used for wireless drivers to help the BSD community in particular OpenBSD who had picked that license for new contributions claimed simplification of the BSD-2-Clause. Because of this reason many BSD communities feel super comfortable with picking up kernel code in Linux under this license. Granted, I'm on no longer a fan of promoting permissive licenses as it didn't buy us cross-collaboration at all. We tried. But it would be unfair to advice against a license unless a reason is stated in favor of another BSD license. Why is the ISC license worse than the BSD-2-Clause?
