The leaders of the companies are not stupid. If they started seeing a net loss from their sales strategy, they'd change strategies.

Unless money is not the goal. Not the sole goal at least. As you said, they're not stupid. It's entirely within reason to assume they may be aiming for more than just money.

Who knows what they're planning. Nothing good for us - that's for sure.
