MODERATORS
That's the difference between libre software and merely open source software.
Libre licenses make it hard or impractical to close the source at a later date.
Open source licenses are much more permissive and allow any entity to produce a closed source derivation at any time.
Libre licenses are all about strategically protecting the software commons from privatization.
