Yeah, probably because of that "generic" Logitech legal-agreement 
document they slapped onto their download page.  If you read it it 
really misses the OpenSource mark.  That is, it's obviously written for 
their "other commercial products".  It's a good laugh.  (To put it 
another way, if an actual lawyer had anything to do with the 
SqueezeCenter server legal-agreement, that person should be let go.)

If you feel funny about the legal-agreement, have no fear.  Last I 
checked, all the downloads are still available from the slimdevices 
repository.  And there are no "mindlessly posted" legal documents there.
