Google and Meta have policies against using any AGPL code anywhere.


I wonder why, it is not like it is hard to comply with.


Legal absolutism and intransigency, and maybe some ideological retribution. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I paid my dues in MAANG. Business culturally, control seemed all-important. They seemed to want source they could use without giving a dime to maintainers, if they so chose. Some support was given, but not enough and not uniformly.
