I didn't know that I thought all RISC-V was open source :( I'm not as familiar with it as I'd like to be. I might just have to dive into it more and change that soon

If RISC-V was under some copyleft license where chip designs would have to be made open source, nobody from the chip industry would support RISC-V. They want "kinda like ARM but without licensing fees".
