But that is a Note that there are quite a few major private players already involved, not just Google! e.g. - The Rust Foundation has AWS, Facebook, Google, Huawei, Microsoft and Mozilla: https://foundation.rust-lang.org/ - AWS and Facebook using Rust for a few years now: https://engineering.fb.com/2021/04/29/developer-tools/rust/ and https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/how-our-aws-rust-team-will-contribute-to-rusts-future-successes/ - Microsoft providing official Win32 bindings/docs for Rust: https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dev-environment/rust/overview Of course, any major company uses most common languages at some point or another, but their commitment looks significant now (and public).
