Don't know why any hacker would argue against you, but for some reason I see people on HN making excuses for companies like google and Microsoft almost everyday. These companies don't like Linux or FOSS, they just want to take advantage of it to make a profit. Google uses Linux to make the most popular OS in the world, and gives almost nothing back compared to what they could be giving back. "b.. but google is one of the biggest contributors to the Linux kernel" - it doesn't matter when their contributions don't serve the greater community. Even if they can't get some of their changes sent upstream, they could still provide patches for users for things like power management. Microsoft is no better. They say they love linux, but you don't see directX coming to linux. You don't see a windows sub-system coming to Linux (even though they were able to code up a Linux sub-system in a matter of months). Why not open source Visual Studio? They just don't give a shit about Linux.
