Libre software selling whatever they can is good for maintaining development.

If the Linux kernel ever changed to AGPLv3 I would for sure buy one GNU/Linux stable release each year to make up for corporations that would ban Linux from their network due to AGPL3 legal obligations.

Prob those companies will go back to windows server or freebsd lol.

For the sake of basic security, there should be a lot more corporate adoption of OpenBSD and FreeBSD. Company networks would be a lot more secure than using Linux due to Linux's schizophrenic nature. Ask a full time BSD sysadmin their view on Linux.

True, additionally windows server doesn't give them flexibility.
