That makes sense. GPL 3 is basically a non-starter for people that ship hardware, but is fine for people that provide web services.
AGPL would level the playing field between Google and device manufacturers and on-prem software companies (like Apple and Microsoft).
Of course they don’t want their employees to use and indirectly support that ecosystem!
I wish they’d produce a GPL 4 that is closer to the AGPL. v3 backfired and is severely hurting end-users’ freedom in practice.
