    If the license on the program is a free software license, but there

    outside of that country.  (You can also use it inside that country as
    long as you don't get threatened, but it may be a bad idea to do
    this.)  For the sake of people in that country, it is a good idea to
    warn users not to distribute the software in that country.

Note that you should not tell people details of the patent
such as who is the patent holder.  We do not want to help patent
holders sell patent licenses!
