That's google and it's to be expected because many of the largest companies have a strict no GPL policy, naturally including AGPL. Doesn't mean tens of smaller startups won't use AGPL licensed software for their SaaS services without any sort of compensation or contribution to the orginal project. AGPL does nothing whatsoever to stop profitable companies from exploiting Open Source software without contributing back.
