Agreed. I think the Samba team said it best:

"The strength of Open Source/Free Software is that it is available to all
 without restrictions on fields of endeavor, as the Samba Team believes
 the ability to freely use, modify and learn from software code is one of
 the grounding principles of computer science, and a basic freedom for
 all.

 Because of this, we believe that the Samba Team must remain true to our
 principles and our code must be freely available to use even in ways we
 personally disapprove of.

 Even when used by rank hypocrites like SCO."
