Except What Elastic is doing is fundamentally opposed to open source, and what Amazon is doing is fundamentally aligned.

At least according to the OSI, who last I checked, really care about open source ideals.

It's not like the OSI and the FSF haven't got at least a few major differences about "ideals" though.

Pretty sure rms is 100% convinced _both_ sides of this disagreement are morally wrong.
