MinIO has switched their license to AGPL (the community is not happy https://github.com/minio/minio/issues/12143). The company behind the project is now contacting all users and tells them to pay for the commercial license. They try to make the users feels insecure about the way they use the product. They don't tell you that you are violating the license, they tell you to check with your legal, etc. So most companies will finally just buy it. This is also a way the AGPL is used: commercial interest, not user freedom.
