    It’s not corporate FOSS that’s the problem here, it’s the BSD license. If BSD had a stronger license, Apple would be forced to give more back.

      I agree it’s the BSD license. That’s what I mean. It’s a license that places no restriction on corporate use without contribution.

      The BSD argument (that I don’t necessarily agree with) is that a less permissive license would encourage companies to use a different solution or build their own. I suppose this at least guarantees them a few $1000 a year depending on apple employee donations.
