Can you have a license that cuts AWS, Amazon and all of their subsidiaries from doing this?
It feels predatory and although Elastic is a huge company by the numbers that keep getting touted here, they're a rounding error on Amazons scale.
Amazons practice in sections of their online market place has been clone / re-brand what's selling well in the market, slap an amazon basics logo on it. Then harass, ban or in the best case put the margins so low (or in the negative until the competition bleeds out) that the original seller can no longer compete. To me, this feels like the OSS equivalent.
I'm anti-Amazon though and not sure if I'm just jaded at this point.
