This is nothing new and nothing I haven't heard before. This same thing happened with MongoDB and with other projects. A proprietary closed license wasn't the right response then and it isn't now. The correct response is to license under GPL or perhaps AGPL. The Apache license was explicitly designed to allow big corporations to build businesses and products around open source tech without contributing back to the community.
