Go is probably less controlled by Google than either C# by MS, or Java by Oracle.

C# has an alternative compiler - Mono that let's it run on Android, iOS. How do I run a Go program on iPhone? What's the point of the "freedom" then?

C# is from 2000. Go is from 2009. Give it time.

I think that depends more on how the company manages the development than the company itself.

If there will be one long green bar (as it should be) then Python/Ruby hipsters might get nervous. We don't want that, right?
