1. there are more and more discussions about open source license, one major one is whether cloud providers can just use the open source software to get tons of money without paying to the main contributor.

2. recently another interesting thing is many chinese engineers are proposing a license to not allow companies that force engineers to work long hours over time (this is happening a lot in China) to use the open source softwares https://github.com/996icu/996.ICU/blob/master/LICENSE

I feel there are something common behind these things is it a time to re-thinking open source license?
