Just because they tolerate Linux’s usage of GPL2 does not mean they are neutral or positive toward GPL-licensed code. You mention Google, Chromium is not GPL-licensed nor do they allow GPL code in their tree. Their new kernel, Fuschia, is not GPL. Linux is a great success story of the GPL, its ubiquity has forced corporations to tolerate it and reciprocally contribute back to the community.
