Problem is that the software license has become irrelevant for the largest tech companies. In the old days there was a fear among them, and probably rightly so, that their software would be "stolen" if they went open source. But today every large corporation is running projects as open source without any fear. What happened? For one these projects are so complex it is not feasible for Joe the programmer to read thru all of it, it takes a company of the size of Google or Microsoft to manage it. The other thing is that the business model changed. Now they give stuff away for "free" to lock you in and spy on your every move and then monetize it. Third is the close integration of hardware and software, so even if someone forked Fuchsia it would be utterly pointless because of hardware. What Google has shown is that it is possible to operate one of that largest spying agencies in the world all on open source.
