It came to light that React license purposefully may impact its users position. 
A strong voice has been raised by Raúl Kripalani -

Should we be worried about bundling our software with software that uses this 
license?
Is the worry that Mozilla not be able to file a patent legal case against Facebook? Or compliance with MOSPL <https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/policy/patents/> or something else?

BTW I just noted that the text in about:license#react and https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/master/LICENSE aren't the same. Is the reason a change to the React license after https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1190440 was fixed?
