[Anil Dash, 2007](https://movabletype.org/news/2007/12/movable%5Ftype%5Fopen%5Fsource.html?ref=onemanandhisblog.com):

> As of today, and forever forward, Movable Type is open source.

[Daiji Hirata, 2013](https://movabletype.org/news/2013/07/license%5Fchange%5Fon%5Fmovable%5Ftype%5F6.html?ref=onemanandhisblog.com)

> Starting with Movable Type 6, registration for the Movable Type Open Source (MTOS) license will end and a new license will be introduced.

Moral of the story? Software owned by a corporate entity is never truly open source.
