Corporations are collections of humans. There are certain ways in which extending human rights to corporations a mistake, but allowing them to use free software isn't one of them: either the individuals in the company are able to use the software or they are not, and if they are not then the software is not free.

I never said corps shouldn't be allowed to use free software.

But I do think corps should not be allowed to be economic free riders of any software.
