User Story
Mastodon is licensed under BSD 2 license (https://github.com/mastodon-sc/mastodon/blob/master/LICENSE.txt). However, it currently references a library in the pom.xml (https://github.com/mastodon-sc/mastodon/blob/a965612e7890ec624232fc69c7431badd65c18d3/pom.xml#L113), that is licensed and AGPL, namely itext 5.5 (cf. https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.itextpdf/itextpdf/5.5.13.3).
The result of this is that the AGPL license of this library supersedes the original BSD-2 license of Mastodon.
