HashiCorp switching to BSL shows a need for open charter companies

In recent years, several high-profile open source companies have made headlines by shifting their licensing agreements away from purely open source models. MariaDB was first with its introduction of the Business Source License (BSL) in 2016 and was closely followed by MongoDB, Confluent, Redis Labs, and others. Now, HashiCorp is the latest company to follow this trend and announce its switch from an open source to a non-compete license. Non-compete licenses mimic open source by allowing users to copy, modify, and redistribute code but only for specific purposes.

RedHat found a way to get around the GPLv2 license intention with contract law

I recently wrote about how the Red Hat model only worked for Red Hat.
