This is not true. People who are saying this would have said this about GPL when it first came out.




Because the nature of software development and usage has changed massively since GPL was created. If GPL was created today it would most likely be like SSPL. The fact, GPL states "derivative work" must be released under a similar license shows to me that their intent was if you build anything where this is the core you must share that.
