I mean if they're gonna give money without demanding anything I'm sure no complaints from the devs.
Shopify or an exec there might find some value in avoiding Google owning the web, could maybe bring goodwill for the company, or they could just be looking for a write off.

My best guess would be that Shopify either care about the open Web or had some disagreements with Google.
I can't find anything shady on them, but maybe I'm looking the wrong places.
