I agree with you. I don't think most people care. Most users hear "free" and their interaction stops there.
The fact that hasicorp changed their license has precisely zero impact on me using OpenSSL in my next project.
I think the key problem word is "community". 99.999% of OSS users are not in any concept of "community". They just run software. Firefox users aren't a "community" - they are just people browsing the Web.
So no, companies can change to BSL licenses all day and you can count all the people in the world who care in one HN thread.
