> The AGPL license permits free use, modification, and distribution of software, provided that distributed, derivative works of the software are released under the same license.
Here is the rub: free software permits unconditional use.
The GPL without the A, or MIT or BSD licenses are not EULAs; they place restrictions or conditions on redistribution, not on use. (With regard to use, they have only certain liability disclaimer clauses.)
The AGPL restricts use; it is an EULA: end-user license agreement. The antithesis of free software.
