> The legal advice to be skeptical of the AGPL is absolutely right.

The legal risk involved by using AGPL software for a company is exactly zero.

AGPL is an open source license which, by the very definition of open source, means that you can freely use the software. Full stop.

The only arguable risk is when modifying the software and on top of that using it in conjunction with other in-house software. But if you are ready to use a proprietary license, you already refrained from modifying the software.

So just use it and end of story. AGPL is a perfectly fine, open source license.
