Ideally to inform about the industry's view of legislation. Like parts of the EU's AI act and Cybersecurity act are terrible for FOSS and small start-ups. It'd be like if compilers had been regulated as dangerous, and GCC stopped to hand Intel a monopoly in the 80s. The bureaucrats often get it wrong, and are led astray (or bribed) by companies seeking regulatory capture (e.g. OpenAI and Microsoft). But in practice the biggest corporations have the most resources and lawyers, so it just serves as another means of pushing regulatory capture.
