@tizo As long as they have zero respect for privacy of their users I really don't give a shit about their contributions to open source.

Exactly my thoughts. Most contributions just means most contributions. That's a terrible measure of value. Look at the second place: we all know that Facebook is a criminal company. The same could be true for any of the listed companies.

Opensource word is becoming a hype like AI and blockchain nowadays.
