That's sort of a ridiculous standard. What counts as "corporate backing?" The Intel/AMD chips in your servers? AWS/GCP/Azure that hosts them? The cable companies that own the fiber your data moves over? Businesses don't, and never have, existed in a vacuum. Why draw the line at frameworks like React?

IDK why you think im drawing the line at frameworks? I'm just highlighting it in this situation. I cant rant about everything negative thing corporations do, Ill never be done. But those examples aren't remotely the same. Intel and AMD is a healthy rivalry to have, for awhile AMD wasn't even competitive. Those companies arent trying to reach into every segment of the world. Cable company monopolies have been beat to death, and are an obvious problem so Im unsure why your even bringing it up? But comcast isn't even comparable to the reach google or facebook has. Something like 1/3 of the world in on facebook, you really want to compare that to American cable companies?
