This license has the peculiarity that any software implementation requires you to offer the source code, even if you only plan to use it privately. This makes it a stronger license than the AGPL in terms of copyleft. If the AGPL already scares away almost all companies, the SOWPL scares away almost everyone.

My question is, what would happen if free and/or open source software had the SOWPL? Would projects have to be forked? Would free and open source software die? Would we have to start from scratch again or hire lawyers to avoid problems?

I would like to know your response to this fictional scenario.

The dot-com bubbles only eliminated companies that didn't have a stable business; those that did only saw their value drop slightly. However, they later recovered and became the giants they are today.

Then in the future the term BIG AI will emerge with the new companies and the old companies in the market.

Do you think OpenAI could be falsifying data, laundering money, or is it just that investors are hyped about AI?
