> FireDucks is not a open source library at this moment. You can get it installed freely using pip and use under BSD-3 license and of course can look into the python part of the source code.

I don't understand what it means. It looks like a contradiction. Does it have a BSD-3 licence or not?

They provide BSD-3-licensed Python files but the interesting bit happens in the shared object library, which is only provided in binary form (but is also BSD-3-licensed it seems, so you can distribute it freely).

Since it is under the BSD 3 licence, users would also be permitted to decompile and modify the shared object under the licence terms.
