Corporations can't 'wield the code' because by copying it and using it it doesn't take it away from other people and as such this argument against BSD license doesn't really make sense. Corporation can copy the code and improve it so that it would have people willing to pay for their improved code version and I am OK with that, in the end they made the work to generate the profit, that's their goal. I don't have one like such, so I can and I do release my code BSD licenses so that others could do anything (literally) they want with it. |

The relevance of the original code can be taken away, for example by hijacking a standard or through control of APIs and/or hardware. Will anyone be able to buy hardware in 10 years time that will not be under the full control of a corporation?
