I am astounded that the maintainer and inventor of Wireguard is in this position.

Microsoft even supports Wireguard in Azure Kubernetes Service.

Maybe time for a custom license that would require M$ to sign up for special T&Cs if they want to use this software?

Who cares if it's OSI-approved or not, a line saying "M$, Google, and the like need written permission for every use case" would help to make those leeches honest. Just learn from the JSLint example.
