Most FOSS is developed dispassionately by corporations who find themselves locked to the project but would rather destroy it if they could. Linux, for example. Almost all code is from corporations, mainly hardware vendors who want Linux to run on their hardware. If they could sell a proprietary OS to their customers they would abandon Linux in a heartbeat. | ||

Luckily, you have the right to fork if you dont like how a FOSS project is being managed. Don't like the corporate influence in Linux? Use FreeBSD. Make your own. Whatever you want. The price of freedom is you have to put in the effort to be the change you want to see in the world. | ||
