My controversial hot take:
People so wrapped up in "no restrictions on field of use" for OpenSource are stuck in the same logic as people who say Nazis and racists should be able to say whatever they want in public.
Popper's Tolerance Paradox, Nazi Bar problem... Whatever you want to call it.
Hyperscalers parasitizing and monopolizing revenue of FOSS projects is NOT OK.
Sure sure, I know, FOSS is not a business model. Keep ignoring the problem and we will end up with much less #FOSS
