Another open source language and people just pile the hate on.

Go is Google's language, Java is Oracle's, Rust is Mozilla's. Anything good for Go or Java is good for their respective companies, right?

What do you want? Some language to arrive from outer space fully formed and license-free?

Python is the PSF's. PHP is Zend's/Facebook's. Ruby is ... Heroku's? JavaScript is... well, definitely not Mozilla's anymore...
