100% true, these people are not smart at all. They are parasites and criminals that are destroying society and they must be stopped. Youtube manipulates what people see all over the world and most of it is pure trash.

The line between user and developer is blurry, especially in the context of software that exposes its configuration entirely as some part of its core function.

> The freedom of users is more important than the freedom of developers.

What exactly is this "freedom" that users are benefiting from? Is this the part where we invoke some negative right? That's called "control".

> If you want to use AGPL software in your project, you're free to relicense under AGPL.

And this condition is the reason that the answer will be "no" every time to using copyleft. Why would anyone ever choose a piece of software which, however you want to twist words, is actually less free in the sense of what it permits and will have less adoption as a result?

I run some websites without ads used by thousands of people and I never intend to monetize them, but I would still avoid these projects solely due to their licensing.

It gives the impression that they don't trust their other more standard testing and analysis tools, and also that they don't trust their developers to use discretion when selecting online resources.

And it seems the software itself reflects a misunderstanding about how programming code is actually manifested. It's very possible to read the official docs or use an IDE and end up writing the same lines of code in some Stack Overflow answer, as many here have said already.
