Ok, but FANG is a different matter: those are established, respectable companies. You shouldn't do the same for small, no-name startups that try to use those take-home assignments to extract free labor from you.
But I don't interview at companies unless I really need to get in. If it were some lousy startup and I'm interviewing there it's because I am hard up and need the job or it's tactically where I need to be next to get where I am going.
Basically if I am spending the time interviewing I am probably willing to do whatever it takes to get the job.
