I don't remember GitHub or Amazon advocating MIT over GPL.

Feel free to prove me wrong by pointing out this massive amount of advocacy from "mega-clouds" that changed people's minds.

The ads, the mailing list posts, social media comments. Anything at all you can trace to "mega-clouds" execs.

This was built by GitHub Inc a very very long time ago.

		The site puts the MIT and GPLv3 front and center with a nice quick informative blurb on them. How are they pushing MIT over GPL?

		I don't see anything on there saying that non-copyleft licenses are better, unless you are in an ecosystem that prefers a different license.
