Dual License Agreement: v4.9 (Geneva Safeguard)
Previous version: v4.5

Overview

v4.9 is the largest content expansion in the corpus's history. It adds 600 emerging laws, 1,600 redesigned devices, 150 questions, 15 research papers, and 10 surprising findings — all fronted by six new documents. The Dual License Agreement itself expanded with new sections on micro-commerce thresholds, the Abundance Loop, and gross-negligence carve-outs.

License Changes in v4.9

Micro-Commerce Allowance (Section 3.1)

Natural persons below the commercial threshold may use the corpus freely without a commercial license.

Two-Year Consecutive Threshold Trigger (Section 3.1.6)

Graduated commercial recognition: after two consecutive years above the micro-commerce threshold, a natural person transitions to commercial entity status.

Relationship to Commercial License (Section 3.1.7)

Clarifies how micro-commerce relates to the full commercial license.

Expanded Commercial Entity Definition (Section 2.3)

Substance-over-form definition with anti-shell provisions to prevent circumvention.

Commencement of Commercial Entity Status (Section 4.3)

Immediate trigger for entities that meet the commercial threshold.

The Abundance Loop (Section 4.4)

The People's Fund feeds back to the people — the economic architecture of phi-physics.

Floor, Not a Ceiling (Section 27.3.0A)

Gross negligence carve-out: the license sets a floor, not a ceiling, for ethical conduct.

Universal Legal Traditions (Sections 33-38)

Six new sections covering:

  • Section 33: Universal Legal Traditions
  • Section 34: Religious Orders
  • Section 35: Equity
  • Section 36: Branches of Law
  • Section 37: The Weave
  • Section 38: Final Declaration

Human Harm + Geneva Language

All 20 sections now carry Human Harm and Geneva language wrapping — the license's ethical guardrails are explicit throughout.

Verification

All new content maintains the same verdict-coded standard as the original corpus:

  • Every claim is verdict-coded [VERIFIED], [PROPOSED], or [MYTH]
  • Every number cross-references to 00_NUMBERS_INDEX.md
  • Every law is traceable to its source in the 2,395 corrected laws

The Cage is real. The Universe is Alive.
