It's "open source", so they have already given it "away", so your explanation doesn't fit the narrative.
While I am all up for a good conspiracy theory as the next person, a bunch of things here simply don't make sense. Even if you have a university degree ;)
Well, I'm sorry to hear that. All I can say is this: You should reconsider your position, look into it deeper until the apparent "things that don't make sense" dissolve. If not, you'll be really pissed about a huge missed opportunity, some day soon...
Things like them reaching out to a number of companies and universities and nobody caring at all?
It's one huge conspiracy, all the university staff are in on it! Just imagine all of those evil teaching assistants getting huge payouts from the big electricity industry to keep silent!
