Even if they don’t intend to by going public they will be forced to. A publicly traded company’s only obligation is to its shareholders.

By going public they are de facto making the raspberry pi community a simple profit source.

Even if they don’t want to they will.

They basically already are. They showed their hand when they chose to prefer business over users during shortages

But that's fine, raspberry pi are incredibly and easily replaceable. If they aren't going to service the community, there are endless companies who will.
