Google is well-known for forbidding the use of software using the GNU Affero General Public License, commonly known as “AGPL”. Google is also well-known for being the subject of cargo-culting by fad startups. Unfortunately, this means that they are susceptible to what is ultimately anti-AGPL propaganda from Google, with little to no basis in fact.
Oh, I agree. It’s sad that many devs are buying into the anti-GPL rhetoric their workplaces spout and spreading it even to their hobby projects now too.
Just didn’t think it was fair to say there was nothing you had to do different with (A)GPL vs MIT for the devs is all :)
