> SAN FRANCISCO – March 17, 2026 – The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization enabling mass innovation through open source, today announced $12.5 million in total grants from Anthropic, AWS, GitHub, Google, Google DeepMind, Microsoft, and OpenAI to strengthen the security of the open source software ecosystem.
It’s almost cute how insignificantly small that amount is considering the companies named. Great for The Linux Foundation of course, but it still feels like they are being cheap as heck.
