This is an interesting point. The open source movement roots in a time where cloud computing was normal, back then called terminal server.
Licences like the AGPL try to tackle this "problem" which feels like a design issue because in spite of having terminal servers nobody could imagine today's "cloud".
Maybe the next years will fence us in walled gardens until a new idea of open collaboration will free us again. A bit like browser wars? Or, is software too ubiquitous today to withstand the forces of capitalism?
