Companies like Redhat are a small price to pay for open source software to exist under capitalism. Would I prefer copyleft software not involve any money at all? Sure. But that’s not realistic when Linux is this big and complex. Big companies fund a lot of Linux’ development but we get free copy left use of it and that’s a good compromise for me.
