The so-called "Business Source License" always seemed like a huge crock of shit. What criteria is used to determine if another project is competitive with Hashicorp? Ansible modules exist to create cloud resources, and they exist in an actually open ecosystem without being built on terrible DSLs.
To be honest I'm not a huge fan of the wringing about the OSI definition, but it exists for a reason. This whole article is just another example of corporate gaslighting. If you don't define this and prevent that definition from being acquired, you're going to keep having CEOs define open source on how they 'feel', and you won't have the 'spirit' of open source at all.
I mean it's literally the BS License. You really can't even make that up.
