There are some interesting thoughts in this piece.
The opinion is that you should apply the APGL license if you're writing software for the commons.
"The lesson we learned is harsh: we can never trust corporations with anything. They destroyed our oceans, our atmosphere and our politics. There’s no reason to trust them with our software, our privacy and our daily lives.
In the long term, our only hope is to build stronger commons. Every day, we must fight to protect and improve the commons while letting corporations have as little power as we can over it and over our lives.
If you are a creator or a coder, you can do it today by adopting copyleft licenses and enforcing them as much as you can. Put your open source code under the AGPL license!"
