Anaconda has reconsidered it's previous decision and again considers Fermilab to be a not-for-profit organization. So once again it is legal to download and use Anaconda packages for free for use for Fermilab related activities.
Short Lived Blocking of Anaconda on the Fermilab site
Between February and September 2022, Fermilab blocked network access to the Anaconda repository at repo.anaconda.com. This was done because, for that period of time, Anaconda had notified Fermilab that the terms of their licensing agreement do not allow for free usage at the lab of the default Anaconda and Miniconda repositories. The community-supported distribution from Conda Forge, Miniforge, remains free.
During the blockage Fermilab recommended that you use Miniforge to replace the functionality provided by Anaconda or Miniconda. You continue to use Miniforge.
It is your responsibility as a Fermilab employee, user or affiliate to respect licensing agreements on Fermilab-owned hardware and networks. Some notes on using Miniforge in place of Anaconda can be found in this article.
This decision was reversed on Sept 13, 2022.
