I agree that it shouldn't be their business, but I would be careful with making a broad assumption like that. That applies to everyone regardless of their immigration/citizenship status.
As discussed in another thread yesterday [0], at least one of the FANG companies (Google) owns all the code you write while employed by them, even if it is written completely on your own time using your own resources and doesn't bring any revenue. It's a bit more complex than that, but, that's the gist.
