No. And it's not just corporations. Because of our IP system, IP (patents, copyrights) ends up being part of the portfolio of any company, including a startup. If the startup is looking to get acquired, that IP ends up being a part of the value of the startup.

And besides, some people might not believe in or care about the four essential freedoms. They don't have to be corporations.

And then of course, there are the ideological reasons that I listed in my OP.
