Datasets:
Make it open-source without additional restriction of access (as it's open-source projects including copyleft ones)

I still have quite a few questions about the licensing of this dataset. My code—and several of my projects—is included in it, but I have no issue with that, since it is released under free and open-source licences such as the GPL, AGPL, and BSD 2-Clause.
So far, so good. However, when I visit https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/the-stack-v2, an email address is required to access the dataset. Does this amount to adding an access restriction to code that is otherwise freely licensed, particularly under the GPL and AGPL?
Could you make it open to avoid any additional restrictions? Thank you
