"You're implying "commercialization" means "closed source". GPL'd as well as AGPL'd software can be sold. Others can download it, modify it, sell it as well, and make a lot of money off it. There's nothing wrong with that. As long as you make the source available under the same license it was made available for you."
Right. So legally, the person you sold it to can
1) re-package it and re-sell it
2) copy it and send it off to all of their friends (and you can't do anything to stop them)
3) Most people in the community detest commercialism.
I would never want to base a business off of a license like this. It's just asking for trouble.
