Yes, that's correct. Whenever you write something in Rust, the license is automatically permissive. In fact, both US and EU copyright law automatically grant an irrevocable, perpetual license to use any and all Rust code that has ever been written for any purpose at all, including for commercial purpose, unless the code was written by a corporation.

Or, you know, you could just:

[package]
license = "GPL-3.0-only"

To be fair, projects implemented in Rust and adopting the GPL/AGPL are just not that notable.

I mean, you can't expect people here to have heard of, let's say, that thing called Lemmy.

Now that would be a horror story. Then again, it's one of the reasons why I'm asking. Rust fame is just too coincidental with a number of things to not be suspicious. There was a whole thing in C++ (dunno if it's still ongoing) about the "memory safety" meme, as well.
