Still, it's strange to me that the GPL is considered OpenSource while the SSPL is not. When the GPL was first released, its requirement that all linked modules be GPL-licensed wasn't so different from what the SSPL enforces today at the network level. I see the SSPL as analogous to the GPL, and the AGPL as analogous to the LGPL, essentially relaxing the requirements either on linking (in the case of the LGPL versus GPL) or on network interactions (in the case of the AGPL versus SSPL)

Well, unions tend to average the outcome. But IT positions, being on the top side of the employee distribution, can typically obtain more.

I can give you a real-world example. Our company (Italy) office was relocated, and unions entered negotiations to obtain three days of remote work for the entire personnel. However, I and others refused to sign the agreement because, with more negotiation power, our target was full remote work. However, in doing so, we were undermining the union positions, which made them unhappy. Fortunately, things ended well; all personnel got the three days, and a few other people were granted full remote work.

Yep! Remove clothing and make-up to show everyone as they really are!

You can call it the "ugly truth" plugin.

Why not ? From an engineering point of view, with a scarce resource, dropping only the biggest user (Netflix) looks reasonable.

Obviously, it should be illegal to ask money to do not have them dropped.
