rms himself writes (in (3)) about why the AGPL is nonfree.
@sneak AGPL doesn’t restrict you from that.
@arh number 3 - "when you wish". i may wish to make no copies of my modified server software, and never distribute them. AGPL prevents this.
@sneak yeah you have a point. I’ll ask RMS and FSF about this.
@arh they redefined "user" to be the person making the http requests and not the person, you know, who actually edited and is running the software on the computers they own, because they're anti-capitalists who don't believe in the concept of private property when it comes to information. they have a stock retort for when they are accused of this which does not actually refute the issue.
@sneak I don’t know how to feel about this but I think I can’t agree on this one.
