That they use some of their trillion dollar marketshare to solve it, why are you acting like this is a hard problem? It's not. They're just too cheap and greedy to do anything about it.

Trillion dollar marketshare? How big do you think GitHub is?
GitHub is wholly owned by Microsoft, which has a 3 trillion market cap
When I left, GH was valued at around $40 billion. Above the $8B they were purchased for. Well below $1T that is claimed
