Software itself is not the primary product though. I argue that Open Source has paved the way for advertisement and services companies (traditionally non tech companies) to call themselves tech companies and gain an advantage in their respective spheres of buisness. Software has eaten the world, and now nobody is hungry. They do not care about core software or it's beauty. They don't care about hacking in true sense.
In that way, they are probably exploitive.
