There's lots of Apache2 projects that have a very large amount of contribution, so maybe this would happen, but I doubt it. Not having to maintain your own fork is a really strong motivator for most companies. This is true.
I guess it’s just a result of the sort of mixture of two arguments: whether to upgrade to v3, and whether to change to AGPL. In the latter, argument, even then companies are not required to give back, but one could argue that they are almost forced to since they must offer source code to all end-users anyway. -- Tyler Romeo 0x405D34A7C86B42DF
