Hence the need of AGPL.

I do a lot of development with closed source software as well, but when I do open source, I take the point of only using copyleft licenses.




The AGPL doesn't either. We have a product based on a third-party AGPL licensed codebase and we're fully compliant even if we don't contribute everything back.

You should really read up on the licenses and the intent behind them; contributing back was never the point.


AGPL is questionably enforceable and still only requires contributions back in a very specific case.
