It's not open, like the Llama. There is a licensing agreement by which they allow you to use it for free on conditions.

True, but the conditions are quite relaxed, so it can even be used commercially without worries by small businesses, while it is unconditionally free for non-commercial uses.

Other big open-weights LLMs have similar licensing terms and I believe that they are quite fair, i.e. at the point when someone uses such an LLM to obtain tens of million $ of revenue it becomes fair to demand a share of that for the creator of the model.
