I’m still completely lost with logic of JA4 patent licensing and actual incompatibility with the copyleft-license. So it seems to be a patent-based license and really risky to implement if you want to keep your actual software open source.
Did someone explore alternatives to avoid this? and especially other format which are open source friendly?

The usual answer is that Europe lacks data, capital, talent, or legal room. I do not think this is the full story.

Claude Code source leak reveals how much info Anthropic can hoover up about you and your system
"Anthropic's Claude Code lacks the persistent kernel access of a rootkit. But an analysis of its code shows that the agent can exercise far more control over people's computers than even the most clear-eyed reader of contractual terms might suspect. It retains lots of your data and is even willing to hide its authorship from open-source projects that reject AI."

The stakes always get higher deeper into a tournament, but the openness of this year’s draw further complicates matters.

Back then there was just no way to make it happen. Hardware was too expensive. We couldn't really ever get it cheap enough, per medic, to deploy. Best I could put together was a bunch of burner phones.
But now it's starting to really make sense. LoRa is cheap, and possibly cheaper in bulk. And it wouldn't be necessary to build everything since ATAK-CIV exists and has several open source implementations. It can even tie in to drones (which are illegal to bring to protests in at least a few states).
