Oh, there are plenty of counter examples, unfortunately.

[–] Aatube@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Prominent ones?

Same for everything, including open source models

St Jude's Children Hospital and Goodwill off the top of my head.

I can’t find anything wrong about St. Jude’s.

Everything is bound to have some bad examples. OpenAI and RedHat were also under open source models.

You keep bringing up open source, why? All I did was say that being a non profit isn't as good an indicator as you might think. How does open source factor in it?

I'm saying that even if it's not universal, it's often one of the better indicators.
