That's why we need more open source under MIT license in the API space.

Fast growing OSS projects like KONG [1] for API management or Strongloop are a way to avoid to invest in technologies that are not fully open or usable under the right license.

I'd go further and add that the API should be under some governance framework so that a single entity cannot make unilateral changes to the API.
