who do you think the "users" that start the quote are, in the scenarios the AGPL is targeted at?

@lxo the person *running* the software on *their own computer*, obviously. in the case of the AGPL, that would be the SaaS proprietor.

you got yourself some studying to do. the AGPL is written for the case in which the user whose computing the software does is the remote party, not the one running the server

@lxo yes the user of the software is the person running the software on their computer - that is, the server operator.

the anti-capitalism ideology in rms/fsf has to swap the terms around to suddenly declare these people running software on their own computers somehow unworthy of privacy.
