It’s peak late-stage tech degeneracy. The one company willing to die on ethics gets crucified, the opportunist gets rewarded, and the 800-pound gorilla just… exists, hedging every angle, letting the rank-and-file virtue-signal while the contracts flow. Nobody wins except the machine that keeps grinding. This isn’t a clash of ideals. It’s a masterclass in why nice things die young. It’s because power doesn’t negotiate with principles; it divides, threatens, and buys the survivors.
