> think most people do not understand that Google funnels a lot of their profits to make Chrome and Android into OSS.
Chrome maybe but for Android, it's debatable at best to state it as OSS. AOSP doesn't run on a single phone on earth, not even the emulator and the freedom of users to modify it is very limited in practice.
I'd put it as "mostly source available" instead of open source.
