Which is why the AGPL exists.
I would rather have few people use my software than have it used as part of a distribution that is sold for profit by an organisation making use of extracted surplus value.
- kartickv 10y agoWhat a negative attitude. You seem more interested in preventing others from benefiting than anything else. I wouldn't have used the phrase "extracted value" because, unlike coal, using it doesn't deplete it. The world isn't zero-sum.
- pjmlp 10y agoAGPL doesn't matter because unless someone that works for the company comes public and denounces the situation, there are very little chances to know how the server stack actually looks like.
