If you go down this path of creating rules that say people should pay to use open source, you’ll discover there are already laws in place sufficient to manage this situation. If a project uses these laws, then you’ll complain the project is

I worked on an incredible C++ codebase back in the dot.com. We built a mobile SVG renderer and packed into 128kb on a Palm 3 and similar code sizes on Blackberries, Symbian (the worst OS ever), Fujitsu phones, and whatever you threw at us.

It could be that Google has a professional CEO. In many of those cases, the customer is the board of directors. AI is driving share prices.
