I don't know if this is what you're trying to say exactly, but I get tired of the mentality that "they only give to charity for the tax incentives." The govt has these incentives in place to encourage charity, that's a good thing, yet the armchair critics love to criticize people for using them, because they aren't being fully altruistic or something. Were taxes part of reason for creating the foundation? Probably. But it still exists and does real work. Overall this is a win for everyone. Dropbox continues to offer a good product, this foundation gets to exist, and money goes to them instead of the govt where it's restricted by all sorts bureaucracy.
