It didn't say that the beta was public. If you run AGPL code on a home server for personal use and someone hacks in I don't think you should owe them code.

- humanistbot 5y agoIf you deploy a "test" version of an app to a public server/domain and send an invite to a closed mailing list for users to beta test it, then that still triggers the AGPL.
- kfprt 5y agoYou are absolutely correct. As far as I'm aware they never sent any invites though. edit: Only the users of the AGPL service are owed the code, it doesn't need to be posted publicly.

But users could access a test version of the platform" > if you run AGPL code on a home server for personal use and someone hacks in No one hacked in [1] "we could find no evidence that someone illegally broke into the website [...] the site was simply deployed live early as a test, and without proper configuration [...] people merely used the site legitimately to register accounts and use its features" https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2021/oct/21/trump-groups-violates-affero-gpl/ https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2021/oct/21/trump-groups-viol...
- kazinator 5y agoI think if you run AGPL code on a public server and someone breaks into it, you also don't owe them the source code because unauthorized access isn't legitimate use.
