And even AGPL is a problematic license.
Mongodb has apparently used it and interesting interpretations of it, to
"encourage" companies to switch to paid commercial licenses, even though
they were not violating the "don't sell a web hosted service and not make
our source available" clause that most people understand AGPL to be.

IANAL and I won't discuss the AGPL in details, but just warning people to be
careful with it and do their homework.
