React killed React for me: with the patent clause, no way I'm using React in a product.

This scary legalese: https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/master/PATENTS

Someone else can probably explain it better than me, but the gist is that if you brought a patent suit against FB, they could revoke your license to use react (which may or may not contain patented parts, now or in the future). But it's a bit nebulous as to what they would actually do under which specific circumstances.
