Is that given by any international treaties, or does it depend on local laws? I'm not 100% sure (been on the mulled wine again), but I think even if I don't distribute any of the bits, I need either a copyright licence or to be covered by one of the blanket permissions in my local laws - which are rather narrow. I'm not confident that I would be covered if I let remote users interact with it as above. So I still think the AGPL3 is a bug.
