    It’s to the AGPL what the GPL is to LGPL: More viral. Calling it “not open source” when using it would require the likes of Amazon to open up their complete stack is kinda hare-brained.

    It could reasonably be argued that it’s too viral and gods know people have been doing that with the GPL but OSI’s argument “enforces additional usage restrictions” is… well, then any copyleft is a usage restriction if you want to be consistent.
