This article says “AWS is... an exploiter of Free software” and I think this is a misleading choice of words because exploit has a connotation that someone is being taken advantage of.
Using free software as it was designed and explicitly allowed isn’t “exploiting.”
I know there’s a discussion and debate and all that, but using this kind of non-settled language casually in a sentence makes me less likely to find an article genuine and accurate.
