Troll?
What about the Google Summer of Code: https://code.google.com/soc/
And all the software they release as open-source like chromium and android?
Are they exploiting Free software more than all the people who use Free software, but don't pay/donate/develop/etc for it?
As Stallman says: "Google does things which are good, things which are neutral, and things which are bad."
Don't be so manichaean.

Oh no people are so prejudiced. You labeled me as a troll instantly which i have never been. What i am trying to say is Google bases almost all of its programs on open source. Makes millions of dollars from them. But what i gives is very very little. Plus Linux support in Google programs are either missing or poor.Troll?

They don't?? I'm not trying to be a fanboy here, but I literally can't think of a single instance where I've found their Linux support lacking. Oh, except for Google Desktop for some reason, but I never cared much about that, though I guess it counts.

Like, Chrome is the only browser that sets up a repository for Linux. Google Talk voice plugin.

Not supporting Linux is one thing, but making it an .exe that only supports Windows is silly at this point. I suspect there is a good chunk of people who do not access their social networking through Windows any more -- OSX, iOS, and Android ought not be sneezed at, and more are (potentially coming): webOS, WindowsPhone (which is *not* Windows), ChromeOS, etc.
This just seems like a dangerous time to develop platform-specific technology on the web. But whatever.

So that means that Mac users are in the same boat as Linux users...
