If anything I'm pissed at large companies relying on a piece of software that's barely funded.

Especially large networking gear whose business is dependent on it. I am less pissed at a website using OpenSSL. Funding from the hardware companies would probably have prevented this issue.
GPL with a commercial license solves this. Even a not for gratis version of GPL would do.

Companies are wasting bucks left and right on stupid shit lie oracle or microsoft licenses when free software and gratis versions exist.

Its a problem in structure and values of society. Had all enterprises valued freedom the entire society and each company would be better off. But no.
