What gets often never discussed in these debates is below :
The sheer inability of OSI to provide a new-age license that can counter AWS.
Can anybody knowledgeable shed some light on this topic ? Like what OSI license can counter AWS & if there are none why aren't OSI doing anything.
- kemitchell 6y agoI'd argue this is pretty much what SSPL was supposed to be: https://writing.kemitchell.com/2019/06/13/SSPL-Not-Commons-Clause.html https://writing.kemitchell.com/2019/06/13/SSPL-Not-Commons-C... It's no secret AGPL was written to solve "the Google problem". SSPL tried to solve "the AWS problem" with copyleft, rather than just banning the use case, which is what Commons Clause did.
