This is a positive externality problem. A public goods problem. There is no incentive for each company to pay into a pile if another company doing so for them would get the same results.

The only way this will ever get resolved is if companies collectively join together and decide to pay. Like say, we could have a tax, that they pay the country they operate in, and that tax could then subsidize these free open source projects that produce positive externalities.
