What are you talking about? Companies need to make money to pay people. Hashicorp made a net loss of $290m last year[0].

There are innumerable bad ways to try to make money. I suspect this license change will turn out to be one of them.

Shrug. Point is, wanting to make enough money to make a sustainable business isn't "money corrupting people".

Ideals are more important than money.

And Hashicorp’s founders sacrificed ideals for the sake of billions.

I don't know what this actually means. Should Hashicorp's employees work for no money, because ideals are more important than money?

Money is just necessary. It doesn't matter if other things are more important on some theoretical hierarchy. If you need a necessary thing then that's all that matters.
