It violates "freedom 0" of the Free Software Definition too, so no difference there. This limitation on use makes is non-open-source AND non-free-software. https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html#fs-definition
It's clear that it's not free software, because as the name suggests, that's about freedoms.
What is not really clear is that it's not open source. To me at least it means that the source is public, you can change it, use it, send in patches, etc, but possibly with some limitations.
