Can't find my bookmarks on that topic right now, but just have a look here (2016) https://www.wired.com/2016/08/linux-took-web-now-taking-world/ to remember how intricately Linux and the corporate world are intertwined. The tinker boys – it's pretty much always boys, very rarely girls – simply ignore that as they ignore how much it's them that provide the new tech that corporations and governments are happy to adopt. Don't sing me "freedom" and "autonomy", when the baseline, i.e., the consequences, of your technology is oppression and the happy choices allowed for in the various strands of consumerism.
