What I am not seeing in any of the discussions about this is the connection with various database products that used to be Open Source but then changed their licenses because they didn’t like AMZN and the like offering hosted versions of their products without paying anything. It’s a similar situation.

Because database products didn't build a platform in hopes that Amazon would add features to it, it's quite the opposite.

This looks more like Amazon copying products from successful sellers on its marketplace, then pushing them to the side.
