People need to realize that Andrew Wakefield, the father of the anti-vax movement as we know it today, was discredited and disgraced for the shoddiness of his so-called "research".

Oh yeah, and he had a vested interest in kids not getting MMR vax - I think he had ownership of a patent on a different rubella-only vaccine. Herp derp.

In my opinion, the answer to Beta is to try to create an alternative /. with the existing or an older design and try to woo people there on virtue of being better. Which of course any site that manages to be Slashdot without the new shit, and with perhaps actual editorial work, can't help but be better. But will they come if you build it?

There is always LGPL.

If I have to choose a license, I usually use the University of Illinois license (a mashup of BSD and MIT type licenses), but occasionally I'll use LGPL 2.01, and if I have to I'll use GPL, but I'm not really a fan of the GPL. BSD-type licenses are more to my personal philosophy, though I do admit that LGPL is the most practically beneficial to me.
