I don't blame the big corps like IBM (disclaimer: I work there, I don't speak for them) and Microsoft and Google. I really blame investors who are looking to get their money back. When they force an IPO but there's no business model to sustain the company, this is what happens. CEOs resort to developer-hostile actions which kills off the community and generates ill-will towards the company. People here shit on "lifestyle companies" but IMO that's the best model for sustainablility and developer communities (if that's what you're into).
