Ok, wait, do I really understand this right?

https://docs.inrupt.com/ess/latest/installation/

and

https://inrupt.com/products/enterprise-solid-server

let me conclude that the new, more decentralized, more privacy respecting vision of a future internet is based on an "enterprise" server with no open source code and to use it I need an "entitlement token" sold by one single company?

To login to Inrupt’s private Docker registry and download the ESS Docker images, your enterprise needs to obtain an entitlement token from Inrupt.

I really hope my conclusions are very wrong, because, you know, it reads like a satire.

Mr. Barners-Lee is selling tokens for the next generation freedom internet and talking about why the other guys selling tokens for the next generation freedom internet are bad?

Please, correct me, this must be wrong.

There are multiple implementations of SOLID server https://solidproject.org//self-hosting/css what you are linking too is other implementation that inrupt sells to big corps as a product. I assume it has a lot more functionality for management of users stuff like that. But the pods them selves work the same.
