My early memories of Google (right around the IPO) involve very strict rules about who can and cannot contribute to FOSS projects and what data must be scrubbed before submitting bugs externally. I did all my contributions under pseudonyms, so it couldn't be linked back to me or to Google. Paranoid companies are not uncommon.
