    But does it have the same virality of AV1 is what I’m asking?
    AV1 implementations are open source, but you might have your licence revoked by AOM making it effectively a timed bomb, since it could happen at any moment, in the worst case when AV1 is everywhere. Also it makes building on top of it a legal risk because AOM still holds the patents, I say risk because you may live in a country that doesn’t give a crap about software patents, so you would be safe to a certain extent
