For example, a vendor might come up with the idea to use AGPL code in his proprietary software, but out-source it into a shareable service accessible over a network, so that his proprietary software does not directly need the AGPL code, but does not work without it. The proprietary software is tightly coupled to the AGPL code. This is still considered a derivative work, so this attempt to bypass the AGPL is prevented by the license.

59		-This copyleft license ensures that when contributions are made to a copyleft project, or when copylefted code is reused directly in another project, the resulting work must be released under the same copyleft license. This prevents vendors from incorporating copyleft code into proprietary products, and ensures that any derivative works remain open source. In addition, copyleft licenses require that the source code be made available to users so that they can modify, build, and control the software themselves.
