Actually I don't care. I will evaluate the business value no matter who owns it and I will vote with my dollars/euros/kroner.
Yes it would be nice if we had a true self owned entity that would help people peer the most cost effective way and only that. Apparently they have something like it in Seattle. But not in my part of the world, hence I view them all as purely commercial entities. I need a good balance of price and quality and will buy from whoever comes with the best business proposal.
