I’ve yet to encounter a tech company that isn’t built on the foundation of free and open source software.
I have worked at two companies which have not built on open source software at all, both companies which built a product from the ground up that has not existed before. There are a few open source libraries used in peripheral parts of the codebase, but the money-maker codebase was, both times, powered by proprietary compilers and not much else.
