> every time some AGPL code has to change, a business has to review the amount of work that will go to it (patch or rewrite and replace), review the patch including legal review This is plain false. AGPL code can be worked on just like any other license or your own proprietary product. > Secondy, this requirement resticts my freedom This is like being prohibited to kidnap other people. We are not allowed to do it because it would restrict other's people freedom down the line. Another example is the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance As a society, we cannot have the freedom to access and modify code together with the freedom to lock down and proprietize code. They are in conflict. > it's undeniable that a permissive license doesn't restrict my freedom It is provably restricting mine. My android phone and many other devices are full of proprietary stuff that I cannot access, review and trust, despite being built with large amounts of FOSS. Because the licensing allowed taking away freedom from the end user.
