It exists, hence e.g. AGPL.

But for most open source licenses, that example would be within bounds. The grandparent comment objected to not respecting the license.

The AGPL does not prevent offering the software as a service. It's got a reputation as the GPL variant for an open-core business model, but it really isn't that.

Most companies trying to sell open-source software probably lose more business if the software ends up in the Debian/Ubuntu repository (and the packaging/system integration is not completely abysmal) than when some cloud provider starts offering it as a service.
