Probably like Affero-License, you could introduce your own clause for your own Software. But you should make sure to give your license its own subname - More like Mani-GPL License.
Yes, it does have some similarities with Affero. I will put up a draft for discussion on "FOSS-PLUS" license.
I think it will be suitable for:
0. FOSS 1. Software for people with strong security and privacy concerns or distrust of proprietary s/w. 2. Software that processes sensitive information (s/w for cloning, health-related info, sensitive scientific data) 3. Safety-Critical Software
... at least. It may also appeal to people interested in opening up code for commercial benefit.
