> then is the intent of this project to only service corporations?

One of the intents is NOT to service corporations for free or promote such services.

As you said, corporations steal all the time, so they're able to use this "for free". But since I'm not willing to steal, I can't use this for any sort of project because commercial activity is not well-defined as the root comment points out. Ironically, that intent doesn't seem to line up with the result.

Yeah, and instead of contacting the authors directly, you are making a public case about how unfair the NC license is.
