    Its a Private Company which is not focused to gain Profit because Investors push to. That is true for literally every other company that has Investors.

    Valve has a Money Machine and mostly don’t care for the next big Profit. They create creative things and behave human in my Opinion.

      MARS is also a private company and has a section for child and slave labor on the Wikipedia.

      ZF is a private company and produces weapons.

      As I already said, Valve has a history of unethical and predatory business tactics. Do you suppose they do these for fun? (and would this improve things in your opinion?)

      Private companies are market participants and have to act in their interest, or go eventually down. Valve wants to make revenue with their investments. The Linux community is at best a vehicle, and at worst a target to them.
