Honestly sounds like paranoid ramblings, never heard of this EEE thing before and now it's as though this is a well known phenomenon. All successful open-source projects will interact with and be used by commercial entities. If it's superior, others will use it, and others will use it to make money. If the network is not currently resilient enough to be able to incorporate the capitalists (crony or other otherwise) then at what point will it? This excuse will always exist. An open source project should be able to lean into this and be able to navigate it, rather than segregate like some wimpy monopolist.
