> Oracle does care about open source, to the extent that they have been the top Linux kernel contributor several times. Back when I worked for Huawei, we regularly figured in the list of top contributors to the Linux kernel each cycle. I never got the impression that Huawei cares about open source. It was just a pragmatic, disinterested business decision. Also, you shouldn't anthropomorphize Oracle.

It's easier to anthropomorphize Oracle if you consider it as One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison.

We should always remember companies are just groups of humans who are accountable for their actions.
