Genuine question: would this software also have to become AGPL licenced, if it's connecting over a network?

  Nope. Thats never the case. you'd just open an api which hopefully the devs will make a connector for.

    Sorry - what does "open an API mean"?
    • 2Gkashmiri 3y ago
      What I mean is, how would your device send data to a software? Open an api meant this interaction from hardware to mobile or computer is documented somwhere with all parameters and auth tokens and such.

        As in call an API via IPC of some sort, e.g. HTTP? I thought that AGPL meant that the copyleftness of the licence would survive that.
