The quoted quote:

"At AWS, we believe that maintainers of an open source project have a responsibility to ensure that the primary open source distribution... does not advantage any one company over another. "

The actual, original quote from the AWS blog:

"At AWS, we believe that maintainers of an open source project have a responsibility to ensure that the primary open source distribution remains open and free of proprietary code so that the community can build on the project freely, and the distribution does not advantage any one company over another."

It's a misquoting, designed to change the meaning to suit his needs. Once you read the original blog post in its entirety, this guy's arguments lose their foundational premise.
