I believe many open source projects that are used by large corporations find a way to make money with that, at least by offering support or consulting or with sponsorships.

There are volunteer projects of which the developer doesn't profit of but are used by corporations but I doubt they are the "largest" transfer as written in the post.

I thought AWS is built on hosting open source projects too.
