Not true. The AGPL solves the problem elegantly. IMHO, the FSF compromised its principles by not closing the “running a binary for someone doesn’t count as distributing the software to them” loophole.
Their compromised ethical stance is what has led them to irrelevance.
As it is, GPL is functionally equivalent to BSD licensing for most of the industry (and essentially all of cloud computing).
