Forum Discussion

Users are discussing the implications of Bambu Studio’s use of bambu_networking.

It looks like generated by ‘AI’, so I recommend taking a dose of scepticism before reading.

Others argue that AGPL-licensed code can consume proprietary libraries.

it is okay for agpl3 app to consume propietary library , not the opposite that derived code must be same viral license

Technical Implications

Some users point out the potential consequences of this interpretation.

This interpretation would mean that you could not produce AGPL licensed code which loads some code in dynamically. Like say you couldn’t have an AGPL licensed web-browser which sometimes loads pages whose JavaScript’s source-code is obscured.
