They're using the BSL now. If they cared about revenue protection, they shouldn't have opened it in the first place.
Starting an open source project, taking contributions from the community and getting popularity and traction because you're open source, and then closing it again because you're so popular Amazon might "steal" your revenue? That's just abusing the community.
