They whine every time they have to spend a week of their life fixing something they aren't equipped to understand. Then after whining they switch to something that works so they can stay productive.
I say this as a Linux user. The burden is on the hardware makers to market their product and make it accessible to the consumer.
When hardware makers take an attempt to make something average customer friendly, they end in something like Android.
Interesting that decade ago Nokia tried to roll out smartphone on real Linux (Debian fork), not that Android mockup over Linux kernel, pretty useable, unlike Linux based Motorolas and it was a huge success, Nokia N9 sells outnumbered all their Windows Phone phones combined despite N9 was not sold in some regions. Guess how that ended. Microsoft bought Nokia and closed its Linux department. Then Nokia disappeared. Interesting that Microsoft totally ignored Android, and never tried to interfere with it. Android phones was perfectly OK for corporations, but not real Linux ones.
So i doubt that any corporation will make something Linux based preserving all openness and user control.
That rich guy will need his own country and a powerful army.
It is kind of closing technology that threatens all world corporations and governments. Imagine - they build that surveillance bloatware money-sucking arena of personal computers for decades, and suddenly somebody roll out a clean computer and OS everybody like and could use for decades. All their enormous surveillance efforts and trillion investments turn to dust. TPTB bombed entire countries for much less.
If that rich guy is smart he would know that a little innovation can circumvent even the most entrenched power structures. Someone just needs to get him to believe.
10 million spent by a clear thinking person is worth more than 1 billion spent by some gay normie like Jeff Bezos.
As for bombing a country, what can they do if operation is in two or more countries? Working up the will to war is no small feat and can't merely be done on a whim.

Yes and no.

It is going to take some eccentric rich guy who hates the system and doesn't want to sell.
