Summary from the TLDR newsletter

The AGPL license permits free use, modification, and distribution of software, provided that distributed, derivative works of the software are released under the same license. It ensures that modifications remain open and discourages proprietary forks. The license allows code to be open source without companies having to worry about other vendors reselling their projects without consent, giving them the confidence to monetize without fear of predatory competition.
