I disagree with that. The Server Side Public License is more open than the AGPL.

In the same sense that the GPL is more open than the MIT license; more viral requirements for openness are generally a good thing. I don't want Amazon and the ilk deploying hosted Mongodb clusters.

People have the most varied creeds and faiths. However the facts are that it doesn't respect freedom 0.

Freedom of what? Freedom of business for cloud providers? I don't give a shit about that.

Open source for me is a hedge against risks. (Especially political and/or legal ones.) Mongodb's current license resolves that issue for me perfectly.
