That's a regrettable attitude, because if open-source cannot address how it integrates as part of a profitable business, people will move away from open-source towards source-visible proprietary licenses. Like you're seeing here. It's in the best interests of the whole open-source community to take a proactive approach here and actually address the problems.

Specifically the problem of multi-billion dollar companies profiting from open-source software without giving anything back in a parasitic relationship.

Nothing exists in isolation, and open-source isn't a magical exception to that.
