"Move fast and break things, ask for forgiveness later."
These multi-trillion companies are filled with sycophants, and
anyone dares to suggest in opposite of the mantra, get fired
immediately. Since some people were complaining about lack of
sources to my claims, here's one for Google's:

There's also the issue of tech giants capturing at least the US
government, ([this was the only article that nicely summarizes
the
issue](https://www.rosalux.de/en/news/id/54328/the-authoritarian-stack-mapping-big-techs-capture-of-state-power)) so there's a pretty good chance of big tech getting the "get out of the jail free card" treatment for this too.
As for Linux: I think that happened due to sponsors having secret
deals with the leadership. Sure, I don't know for sure, since I
don't have an insight into them. But considering that
[Weka](https://www.weka.io/) is involved in the AI push and is a
sponsor of the DLF, I wonder if the free tokens are coming from
them alongside with instructions to allow (or even force) AI into
the codebase.
