Indeed. They care about the environment when pretending to do so lets them fight against things which are actually good for the environment and bad for the fossil fuel industry.

There is a feeling that releasing the code is "giving it away for free". But, being able to compile and deploy it is not the whole story. Enterprises need support from the people who built the thing, and so without that it is no
